Gambler

The Gambler captures the intoxicating pull of risk through Alexei Ivanovich, whose obsession with roulette mirrors deeper emotional turmoil.

Dostoevsky's firsthand insight into addiction lends urgency and realism, as fortunes rise and collapse in moments. Fast-paced and psychologically rich, this novel reveals how chance can dominate a life.
