The story follows a young teacher employed by a once-wealthy Russian general, exploring themes of addiction and desperation through the lens of gambling. Inspired by Dostoevsky's own experiences with roulette, the narrative reflects his struggles with debt and the pressures of financial ruin. Written under tight deadlines, the novella captures the thrill and peril of gambling, mirroring the author's real-life encounters in various casinos. The collaboration with his future wife, who transcribed his dictated notes, adds a personal touch to this intense exploration of human behavior.
