On November 21, 1869 Ivan Ivanov a student attending Petrov Agricultural Academy was murdered after being lured into retrieving a printing press. This came after Ivanov chose to protest against the nihilist dictator Sergei Nechaev. In Dostoevsky’s works preceding Demons the writer created fictional characters that as Joseph Frank put it “could be considered ‘historical’ in a broad sense” but with Demons, the confrontation of Ivanov became the initial base of the novel.
To pay homage to the author we have decided to release this the 150th Anniversary Edition on November 11th to coincide with his birthday. It is our hope that this 150th Anniversary Edition will serve as a tool to pass on the words and teachings of Fyodor Dostoevsky to your children, and to never forget the sacrifice made by men like him.
