The great-grandson of the writer Fyodor Dostoevsky, Dmitry, has died in St. Petersburg at the age of 80. His relatives announced this on social networks.
“Dmitry Andreevich passed away peacefully, in his sleep, at home, his death was quiet. The family was able to say goodbye, they were all together, they sat, remembered funny and sad things, remembered their grandfather with a kind word,” — wrote Natalia Dostoyevskaya.
Subscribers to Dmitry Dostoevsky’s story express their condolences to the family and note that they are accustomed to his stories and photographs of St. Petersburg.
