The Raw Youth or The Adolescent

Translated by Constance Garnett. The Raw Youth or The Adolescent is a novel of Russian writer Fyodor Dostoevsky. It was first published in 1875. The novel chronicles the life of 19-year-old intellectual, Arkady Dolgoruky, illegitimate child of the controversial and womanizing landowner Versilov. A focus of the novel is the recurring conflict between father and son, particularly in ideology, which represents the battles between the conventional "old" way of thinking in the 1840s and the new nihilistic point of view of the youth of 1860s Russia.
