![Dostoevsky's Demons 10: The Anguish of Stravogin (Part 2, 8, 9b [Appendix]).](/img/logo.svg){kind=logo}
Stravogin's character looks quite different from the perspective of the withdrawn chapter, for we see both the depth of his depravity in his initial stage of life and the anguish and searching that it triggers in him. He is always a conscience-stricken man in the book, but that is because we only see him in the third stage of his life, when he is trying to figure out what to do with his wrongs. He visits the Bishop and confesses, but cannot forgive himself. Precisely where that leaves him we do not know. It is no where good though.
