List of characters and their relation to one another?

[TWTCommish]

Hi there,

I'm reading The Gambler and was wondering if anyone familiar with it could perhaps give me a brief rundown of its characters and their general relationship to one another at the start of the novel? I read Crime and Punishment last year and it contained, quite helpfully, just such a list, and it proved quite useful in keeping all the names, first names, middle names, and multiple nicknames for each character straight.

Any help on this front would be greatly appreciated.

Not sure if bumping is permitted around here. Would really appreciate anyone who could just give me a rough overview of the characters, so I'm not too lost in the first third of the book.

Well, last try. Would really appreciate any help, so I can avoid having to buy another copy of the book in hopes that it contains this.

Why not wiki it?

That was, naturally, the first place I went, but the list of characters there doesn't list their nicknames (a big deal in Russian literature, obviously), or their relation to one another, unfortunately.
