Summary : It’s only 16 pages so we’ll just throw some words together and you’ll see how they connect when you read the story . Children’s party , marriage , strangers , nobility , laughing , investments .

Review : A quick and darkly humourous story about investments and marriage among the nobility of Russia . It made me uncomfortable but the story was interesting and I think it was well worth reading . Dostoyevsky is a great writer , probably should’ve put one of his other stories up on here first … but nah .
