Vsevolod Krestovsky (1840-1895) was a writer and journalist.

The novel "Petersburg Slums" is a bestseller in Russian literature of the second half of the 19th century, one of the first works to explore the criminal underworld. It has been compared to Eugène Sue's "The Mysteries of Paris." The novel inspired the television series "Petersburg Mysteries" (1994-1998).

The novel "Petersburg Slums" is a bestseller in Russian literature, one of the first works to explore the criminal underworld. Read about 19th-century Petersburg, with its dazzling palaces and embankments, filthy back alleys, flophouses, and prisons. The adventure plot masterfully intertwines the destinies of characters from different social groups: princes and high society ladies, depraved women, thieves, and murderers.
