Had he not met the deadline, Dostoyevsky's work for the next nine years would be published without a cent heading in the writer's direction; luckily, this novella was finished before the due date (with the help of a stenographer whom he would later marry) and would go on to become much adapted into films and even an opera. Dostoyevsky's first-hand experience with the gaming tables of Europe would color the novella with a certain realism that is impossible to forget.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 214\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.45 x 9.02 x 5.98 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 27, 2015\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42716368339007,"sku":"9781512382235","price":14.66,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/8226\/1823\/files\/f76c7e3c7de77ea9eaca56b40f6ea480.webp?v=1765074670","url":"https:\/\/dhlswag.com\/products\/the-gambler-paperback-7","provider":"BBB","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
