"White Nights" (Russian: Belye nochi) is a short story by Fyodor Dostoyevsky, originally published in 1848, early in the writer's career.
Like many of Dostoyevsky's stories, "White Nights" is told in first person by a nameless narrator; the narrator is living in Saint Petersburg and suffers from loneliness. He gets to know and falls in love with a young woman, but the love remains unrequited as the woman misses her lover with whom she is finally reunited.
