The Meek One (Penguin Little Black Classics) By Fyodor Dostoyevsky, Ronald Meyer (Translator)

The Meek One (also known as A Gentle Creature) is a short story by Fyodor Dostoyevsky, written in November 1876. The narrative unfolds through a first-person stream of consciousness, chronicling the relationship between a pawnbroker and a young woman who frequents his shop. Inspired by a news report Dostoyevsky read about the suicide of a seamstress, the story delves into themes of desperation, greed, manipulation, and the tragic consequences of emotional neglect.
