FYODOR DOSTOYEVSKY (1821-1881). He was one of the most influential novelists in Russian literature who was born in Moscow, Russia.

He published his first novel, Poor Folk, in 1846, which gained him critical acclaim and recognition as a promising young writer. Over the next few decades, he wrote some of his most famous works, including Crime and Punishment (1866), The Idiot (1869), and The Brothers Karamazov (1880).
