This novella, first published in 1846, deals with the internal struggle of its main character, "our hero" Yakov Petrovich Golyadkin (which means "naked" or "insignificant.") The narrator depicts a man whose life and reputation are threatened by the appearance of a double of himself, who tries to claim his position in the Russian bureaucracy and social circle.

From the Publisher:
Hesperus Press, as suggested by their Latin motto, Et remotissima prope, is dedicated to bringing near what is far—far both in space and time. Works by illustrious authors, often unjustly neglected or simply little known in the English–speaking world, are made accessible through a completely fresh editorial approach and new translations.
About the Author:
Through these classic works, which feature forewords by leading contemporary authors, the modern reader will be introduced to the greatest writers of Europe and America. An elegantly designed series of genuine rediscoveries.
Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky are known for their highly-acclaimed translations of Dostoevsky (Demons, The Brothers Karamazov, Crime and Punishment , The Idiot, The Adolescentand Notes from Underground have already been published by Everyman). They have twice been awarded America's PEN/Book-of-the-Month Club Prize, for The Brothers Karamazov and for their translation of Tolstoy's Anna Karenina.
