Uncle's Dream by Fyodor Dostoyevsky is a satirical novella set in a provincial Russian town. It follows the ambitions of Maria Alexandrovna, a scheming mother determined to marry off her beautiful daughter Zina to a senile old prince for wealth and status. As the town buzzes with gossip, the plan unravels through misunderstandings and personal conflicts. Blending humor with social commentary, the story critiques vanity, greed, and the absurdities of provincial life in 19th-century Russian society. Summary by John McCormick
