The Landlady Fyodor Dostoyevsky (1821 - 1881) Translated by Constance Garnett (1861 - 1946) Read in English by Yuqing Cao Running Time:04:14:12 in 5 Audio CDs After the reclusive and bookish scholar Vasily Ordynov is compelled to leave his apartment he wanders aimlessly through Saint Petersburg, contemplating his despair over a loveless life, his childhood and his future. Through this distraction he finds himself within a church, where he notices an old man, Ilia Murin, with his young wife, Katerina. His fascination for the couple, particularly Katerina, causes him to contrive further encounters, with the intention of securing a lodging at their home. He becomes their house guest. The gloomy Murin is a perceived Old Believer, with powers of clairvoyance that have perturbed his neighbors and the local police, and which appear to control his wife. Katerina implies that Murin was her mother's lover, that she might be Murin's biological daughter, and that the pair ran-off together after he killed her father. There is an unresolved suggestion that Murin caused the death of Katerina's fiancé during their escape..Our Audiobooks are Complete and Unabridged (unless otherwise indicated)Our Audiobooks are always read by real people, never by computers.Please Note: These recorded readings are from the author's original works which are in the public domain.
