Notes from Underground (pre-reform Russian: Записки изъ подполья; post-reform Russian: Записки из подполья, tr. Zapíski iz podpólʹya), also translated as Notes from the Underground or Letters from the Underworld, is an 1864 novella by Fyodor Dostoevsky. Notes is considered by many to be one of the first existentialist novels.[1] It presents itself as an excerpt from the rambling memoirs of a bitter, isolated, unnamed narrator (generally referred to by critics as the Underground Man), who is a retired civil servant living in St. Petersburg. The first part of the story is told in monologue form, or the underground man's diary, and attacks emerging Western philosophy, especially Nikolay Chernyshevsky's What Is to Be Done?[2] The second part of the book is called "Apropos of the Wet Snow" and describes certain events that appear to be destroying and sometimes renewing the underground man, who acts as a first person, unreliable narrator and anti-hero.[3]

Written in reaction to Nikolay Chernyshevsky’s ideological novel What Is to Be Done? (1863), which offered a planned utopia based on “natural” laws of self-interest, Notes from the Underground attacks the scientism and rationalism at the heart of Chernyshevsky’s novel. The views and actions of Dostoyevsky’s underground man demonstrate that in asserting free will humans often act against self-interest. The underground man is profoundly alienated from life, entombed in his room. The hero’s views are outlined in Part I, and Part II describes the underground man’s conflicts. When he turns to reason for salvation, it fails him, and he concludes that not reason but caprice ultimately prevails in human nature.

Brothers Mikhail and Fyodor Dostoyevsky dreamt about writing when they were young, but their father believed that writer's work wouldn't be able to provide material well-being for his sons, so he brought them to Petersburg in order to prepare them for entering the Main Engineer School. In Writer's Diary Dostoevsky looks back to the journey to Petersburg "I was constantly composing the novel about Venice life". Fyodor Dostoyevsky was admitted to be the classic of Russian literature and one of the best novelists of the world significance only after his death. His works influenced a lot the world literature, and the most famous novels of the writer were included to the best 100 books of the Norwegian book club.
