White Nights by Fyodor Dostoevsky is a beautifully haunting novella about loneliness, longing, and fleeting love. Set against the dreamy backdrop of St. Petersburg's white summer nights, the story follows a solitary dreamer who encounters a young woman named Nastenka. Over four nights, the two share their stories, hopes, and sorrows—forming a tender bond that might just break the narrator’s spell of loneliness.
