White Nights

An Intimate Story Inspired by Dostoyevsky

By: Silas Dakar

Narrated by: Jonny Unitus

Have you ever felt like a ghost wandering through your own life?

In this luminous modern adaptation of Dostoevsky's masterpiece, two solitary souls collide on the white nights of summer—when darkness barely falls and dreams feel more real than daylight.

He's a dreamer who lives more in his imagination than reality. She's trapped between a painful past and an uncertain tomorrow. Over four extraordinary nights, their conversations reveal profound truths about urban loneliness, the architecture of hope, and the transformative power of being truly seen—even if only briefly.

Narrated with remarkable intimacy by Jonny Unitus, this contemporary retelling captures what it means to love in an age where we're more connected yet lonelier than ever. Unitus brings a tender vulnerability to Dostoevsky's dreamer, making a 19th-century tale feel urgently, achingly modern.

For listeners of Sally Rooney, Elena Ferrante, and anyone who believes four nights can contain a lifetime.

The PDF includes exclusive behind-the-scenes content, exercises for processing the story's themes, and the author's personal journey of adaptation.

More Than a Reading

This isn’t just a reading of White Nights.
It’s a transformation — intimate, stripped of distance, and quietly devastating.

While Dostoyevsky’s original is lyrical and philosophical, this adaptation leans into the emotional core: the ache of waiting, the softness of unmet desire, the fragile hope between two people who almost connect.

Jonny Unitus doesn’t narrate — he inhabits.
His voice carries every pause, every hesitation, every breath of something that could’ve been love.

It’s not performance.
It’s presence.
And it lingers.
