did Dostoevsky meet Dickens?

[naiman at BERKELEY.EDU]

A follow-up -- the editor of the Dickensian informs me that in the
journal's next issue a note will be  published indicating that doubt has
been cast upon the authenticity of the 2002 article which quoted from
Dostoevsky's letter about his meeting with Dickens.  He added that the
author of that article was severely inured in a traffic accident a year
ago and is unable to respond to inquiries about it.

It would still be interesting to determine whether the Kazakh journal
mentioned actually exists and if an article about Dostoevsky was published
in it on the pages cited by the Dickensian article.
