The Dostoevsky Journal:
An Independent Review

The Dostoevsky Journal: An Independent Review is a refereed international interdisciplinary journal promoting deconstructive readings of the works of F. M. Dostoevsky in conjunction with other texts of the European literary canon. Contributions are invited on topics that situate Dostoevsky in the context of postmodernism, poststructuralism and phenomenology, or which try to extend the boundaries of Dostoevsky's poetics.
