Example Sentences
- "The later version of Dostoevskeyan man, unlike the earlier homme absurde projected in the Notes, is no longer the obdurate individualist demanding free choice at whatever cost."
- "Nevertheless in each year from 1923 to 1937 an O’Flaherty book appeared. The novels can be grouped into three kinds – those where Aran, as Nara or Inverara, provides the context; those that read as thrillers in a Dublin setting with Dostoevskeyan overtones, and those that were set at the watersheds of Irish history."
- "Whereas the generational sweep and impersonality of The Rainbow are Tolstoyan, Women in Love is highly Dostoevskeyan in the destructive self-consciousness and extreme behaviour of its characters."
