Timid man with an explosive temper. What kind of person was Fyodor Dostoevsky?
A beautiful socialite Senyavina wanted to meet a sought-after writer
Dostoevsky. When she complimented him, he paled, staggered, and fainted. He was then carried into the back room and doused with cologne. He recovered, but did not return to the salon.

Contemporaries left many recollections of the writer’s character. He was very emotional, easily lost his temper and could hardly restrain himself if something annoyed him.
Few were aware that Dostoevsky’s irritancy, sullenness and resentfulness occurred due to epilepsy, which the writher suffered fr om.
The life of Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoevsky was closely connected with the city on the Neva. He moved to St. Petersburg in 1837, wh ere he changed residence about 20 times over the years. The streets and houses of the Northern capital are depicted in the writer’s works. You can learn about his life by visiting the Dostoevsky Museum, at 5/2 Kuznechny lane.
