"The Gambler / Bobok / A Nasty Story" by Fyodor Dostoyevsky, Translated by Jessie Coulson (1966)

I don't think Penguin even sells this version anymore, which translates short works published in Russia roughly 100 years prior. It seems, even when he's doing light, engaging comedy, he draws main characters who possess very complex layers of inner torment. Somebody needs to let everyone know that we can do that. Three stars.
