"Poor Folk" could captivate you if you're interested in exploring human connections against the backdrop of adversity. Dostoyevsky's insight into the characters' lives is deep and intimate, thanks to the novel's epistolary form. The emotional depth and social commentary might just make you see the world through a different, perhaps more empathetic, lens.
