Returning to Russia from a sanitarium in Switzerland, the Christ-like epileptic Prince Myshkin finds himself enmeshed in a tangle of love, torn between two women—the notorious kept woman Nastasya and the pure Aglaia—both involved, in turn, with the corrupt, money-hungry Ganya. In the end, Myshkin’s honesty, goodness, and integrity are shown to be unequal to the moral emptiness of those around him.

As Fyodor Karamazov awaits an amorous encounter, he is violently done to death. The three sons of the old debauchee are forced to confront their own guilt or complicity. Who will own to parricide? The reckless and passionate Dmitri? The corrosive intellectual Ivan? Surely not the chaste novice monk Alyosha? The search reveals the divisions which rack the brothers, yet paradoxically unite them. Around the writhings of this one dysfunctional family Dostoevsky weaves a dense network of social, psychological and philosophical relationships. At the same time he shows - from the opening `scandal` scene in the monastery to a personal appearance by an eccentric Devil - that his dramatic skills have lost nothing of their edge."The Karamazov Brothers", completed a few months before Dostoevsky`s death in 1881, remains for many the high point of his genius as novelist and chronicler of the modern malaise. It casts a long shadow over D.H.Lawrence, Thomas Mann, Albert Camus, and other giants of twentieth-century literature.

Wieczny mąż, podobnie jak inne utwory Dostojewskiego, zbudowany jest na charakterystycznych dla prozy rosyjskiego pisarza "przeklętych problemach". Wiarołomstwo, żądza zemsty, topienie własnych lęków i rozpaczy w alkoholu, psychologiczny sadyzm i masochizm - oto, co dręczy jego bohaterów. Dostojewski ukazuje ich w całym wewnętrznym skomplikowaniu, jako jednostki głęboko nieszczęśliwe, napiętnowane poczuciem klęski i winy.
