Resurrection from the Underground by Ren Girard

In a fascinating analysis of critical themes in Feodor Dostoevskys work, Rene Girard explores the implications of the Russian authors underground, a site of isolation, alienation, and resentment. Brilliantly translated, this book is a testament to Girards remarkable engagement with Dostoevskys work, through which he discusses numerous aspects of the human condition, including desire.

René Girard is a member of the French Academy, Emeritus Professor at Stanford University, and the author of several books that have been translated widely. He is the recipient of the Modern Language Association's Lifetime Achievement Award (2008).
