Loosely based on sensational press reports of a Moscow student’s murder by fellow revolutionists, The Possessed depicts the destructive chaos caused by outside agitators who move into a provincial town. The enigmatic Stavrogin dominates the novel. His magnetic personality influences his tutor, the liberal intellectual poseur Stepan Verhovensky, and the teacher’s revolutionary son Pyotr, as well as other radicals.

Defense of this audio
Revisado: 02-16-11
This audio is from the translation by Constance Garnett. The Barnes and Noble Classic edition also translates the French and provides good endnotes.
I disagree with the above comments in that I believe this narrator does give a good voice to a Russian novel. I don't like Russian characters with British accents. He is especially good with drunken, abusive characters, and with the passages in French.
I do agree with the above comments in that this narrator's characterizations are very limited. I could discern only 5 different characters and that's if you listen closely. He fails to render a good voice for the female characters.
