White Nights

"I am a dreamer. I know it. I always was a dreamer."

Fyodor Dostoevsky's White Nights is a tender and deeply emotional story that captures the aching beauty of loneliness, hope, and fleeting love. Written with lyrical grace and human sensitivity, it remains one of Dostoevsky's most beloved short works.

Set in St. Petersburg, the story follows an unnamed narrator—a shy, romantic dreamer who lives more in imagination than in reality. One night, during a quiet walk through the city's «white nights,» he meets Nastenka, a young woman whose kindness awakens in him a fragile yet luminous love. Over four nights of conversation and confession, their connection blossoms—but as dawn approaches, so too does heartbreak.

With its exquisite language and emotional purity, White Nights explores the yearning of the human soul for connection, belonging, and beauty—and the bittersweet realization that dreams and reality rarely meet.

More than a love story, it is a meditation on isolation, imagination, and the tender vulnerability of hope.
