Book excerpt: Razumov unwittingly becomes embroiled in a revolutionary conspiracy when he gives refuge to a fellow student who assassinated a public official. Increasingly enmeshed in the radical’s political intrigue, he betrays the anarchist who had placed blind faith in him. The authorities then dispatch Razumov on a mission to spy on the revolutionary’s sister and mother. A fascinating character study, Under Western Eyes hauntingly reveals Razumov’s preoccupation with questions of decency and accountability when confronted by the equally powerful values of human integrity and moral strength.
