The Eternal Husband
The Eternal Husband is a novel by Russian author Fyodor Dostoyevsky that was first published in 1870 in Zarya magazine.
The plot revolves around the complicated relationship between Velchaninov and Trusotsky, the husband of his deceased former lover. Alexei Ivanovich Velchaninov is a land owner who stays in Saint Petersburg for a trial about a piece of land. He receives a visit from Pavel Pavlovich Trusotsky, an old acquaintance who recently became a widower. Velchaninov had an affair with Trusotsky's wife Natalia, and he realizes that he is the biological father of Liza, Trusotsky's eight-year-old daughter. Velchaninov, who doesn't want Liza to be raised by an alcoholic, brings Liza to a foster family. Liza dies there. Trusotsky now wants to marry Nadia, the fifteen-year-old daughter of civil servant Zakhlyobinin. She's the sixth daughter of eight. Trusotsky takes Velchaninov with him to visit his fiancee, and buys her a bracelet. Trusotsky is ridiculed by Zakhlyobinin's daughters and locked up during a game of hide-and-seek. Nadia gives the bracelet to Velchaninov, asking him to return it to Trusotsky and tell him she doesn't want to marry him. Nadia is secretly engaged to Alexander Lobov, a nineteen-year-old boy. Trusotsky spends the night in Velchaninov's room and tries to kill him with a razor knife. Velchaninov manages to defend himself, injuring his left hand. Sometime later, when Velchaninov has won his trial, the two meet again at a railway station. Trusotsky is remarried, but a young army officer is travelling with him and his wife. Trusotsky's new wife invites Velchaninov to visit them, but Trusotsky asks him to ignore this invitation.

داستان این رمان درباره مردی ست، که همیشه شوهر است، و به نظر نمیآید شخصیت اصلی داستان باشد. به جای این مرد، شخصیت اصلی قصه، مردی به نام «ولچانینف» است، که شخصی مجرد، ثروتمند، کمی عیاش، و البته مبادی آداب به چشم میآید. آغاز نقل از متن: «ناتالیا (همسر دوست ِ ولچانینف) از این زن هایی ست که به نظر میآید برای بی وفا بودن زاییده شده اند. اینگونه زنها قبل از ازدواج به این راه نمیافتند . طبیعتشان به طور کلی تقاضا میکند که برای این کار ازدواج کنند. شوهرشان اولین عاشق ِ آنهاست، اما فقط بعد از ازدواج. هیچکس به این آسانی و به این مهارت ازدواج نمیکند و شوهر همیشه مسئولیت و جور اولین عاشق را به گردن میگیرد. بعد همه چیز٬ تا حد امکان با صداقت میگذرد. این زنها همه چیز را کاملا حق خود تصور میکنند و طبیعتنا کاملا خودشان را پاک و بی آلایش میدانند. یک دسته شوهرانی هم که طرف مقابل آنها هستند، یافت میشوند، که تنها ماموریتشان این است، که با اینجور زنها به سر ببرند. به عبارت دیگر وظیفه ی اساسی اینطور مردها اینست که؛ همیشه شوهر باشند؛ یا واضحتر بگویم٬ در همه ی زندگیشان فقط شوهر باشند، و نه چیز دیگر!» پایان نقل. ا. شربیانی
Well... high class society, hatred, mind games, cheating on husbands... Wasn't really sure whether to laugh or to cry! Amazing! Art in letters.

No one ever seems to talk about Dostoyevsky's lesser works, like this novella, written inbetween two of his most famous works The Idiot and Demons. The story is, Velchaninov (main character) had an affair with Trusotsky's wife, Trusotsky turns up on Velchaninov's doorstep and basicly drop's hints that he knows. The Eternal Husband is the idea that there is a certain type of man that needs to be married to feel complete and Trusotsky freely admits to being this type of man. This book is a great
I am c-o-m-p-l-e-t-e-l-y blown away by this book, but to be honest, I am completely blown away by every book of Dostoyevsky.What a story! There are so many valuable things about this book, beautifully written, intelligent, witty, profound, but among everything else, the plot is so exciting, an incredible psychological thriller. I was so tense, waiting to see what will happen. Dostoyevsky is magnificently creating an atmosphere of suspense and portraying most complex characters and emotions.
Reseña, después.Review, much much later. No time for my books, either. I have tons of work to do.Damn it.By the way, I did like this book.

Is there another writer that plumbs the depths of a guilty conscience better than Fyodor D.? I doubt it. Plus, he gets away with the kind of melodrama only seen these days in TV soap operas. I find it endearing and amusing, but always wonder how close to the Russian character are these representations--surely, a whole country couldn't have survived full of men sent into paroxysms by the slightest hint of disgrace or social offense?I'd never heard of this book and would have easily overlooked itWell... high class society, hatred, mind games, cheating on husbands... Wasn't really sure whether to laugh or to cry! Amazing! Art in letters.
