Dostoevsky on the Threshold of Other Worlds: Essays in Honour of Malcolm V Jones is a scholarly collection that explores the multifaceted work and legacy of Fyodor Dostoevsky, one of Russia’s most profound literary figures. Edited by Sarah Young, this volume gathers essays from leading scholars who engage with Dostoevsky’s writings, highlighting his complex engagement with philosophical, theological, and psychological themes.

The book pays tribute to Malcolm V Jones, a distinguished Dostoevsky scholar whose pioneering research has significantly shaped contemporary understanding of the Russian novelist’s oeuvre. The essays examine Dostoevsky’s position at the “threshold”—a metaphor for the liminal spaces between different worlds, realities, and states of consciousness that permeate his work.

Through interdisciplinary perspectives, the contributors explore Dostoevsky’s narrative strategies, his exploration of human suffering, existential dilemmas, and his visionary insights into the human condition. The volume sheds new light on Dostoevsky’s enduring relevance in literary studies, philosophy, and cultural discourse.

This collection is essential reading for students, academics, and anyone interested in Russian literature, philosophy, and the profound questions about life and otherworldly experience that Dostoevsky’s work continues to raise.
