Summary: "Der Doppelgänger" by Fyodor Dostoyevsky is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story centers around Yakov Petrovich Goljadkin, an insecure and paranoid civil servant who experiences a sense of alienation and a growing fear that his identity is being undermined by an uncanny counterpart. This exploration of duality and the psychological intricacies of self-perception is typical of Dostoyevsky’s style. The opening of the novel introduces us to Goljadkin as he awakens in his shabby apartment in St. Petersburg. He is disoriented, pondering the reality around him versus the remnants of his dreams. As he prepares for his day, Goljadkin's thoughts reveal his deep-seated insecurities, especially regarding his social standing and the fear of being judged by others. His excitement about having money leads him to visit various shops, reflecting his attempts to assert himself in a society that makes him feel inferior. The stage is set for further exploration of his psychological turmoil, indicating that the novel will delve into themes of identity, societal expectations, and the fragility of self.
