Buried Alive, or, Ten Years of Penal Servitude in Siberia. Fyodor Dostoyevsky. New York: Henry Holt, 1881. First American edition, first printing. Translated by Marie von Tilo.“I remember seeing once a prisoner, who had regained his liberty after twenty years of captivity, take leave of his comrades. Some of his fellow-prisoners remembered him when he had come in first — a light-hearted lad, who cared little for the crime he had committed and still less for his punishment. He left the place a grey-haired old man, with a sad and gloomy face.” -- source link
