The Gambler

When the stakes are love, pride, and fortune—how much would you bet?

The Gambler is Dostoevsky's electrifying dive into the psychology of addiction, greed, and reckless passion. Drawing from his own struggles with gambling, Dostoevsky weaves a fast-paced, emotionally charged tale that is both deeply personal and universally powerful.

Meet Alexei Ivanovich—a man caught between desire and self-destruction.

Serving a Russian general in a fictional European spa town, Alexei finds himself entangled in a dangerous web of love, pride, and compulsive roulette. His romantic obsession with the aloof and manipulative Polina collides with his craving for risk, spiraling into a suspenseful and tragic dance of fate.

A story of love, loss, and the illusion of control.

At once thrilling and thought-provoking, The Gambler is a raw look into the human condition—where fortune teases, passion burns, and every spin of the wheel could be the last.
