As he becomes embroiled in the frantic amatory and financial intrigues which center around a cast of brilliantly realized characters and which ultimately lead to tragedy, he emerges as a unique combination of the Christian ideal of perfection and Dostoyevsky's own views. His serene selflessness is contrasted with the worldly qualities of every other character in the novel.

Joseph Frank has called The Idiot "perhaps the most original of Dostoevsky's great novels ..."
