Welcome to Litsy!

Interesting thought... also interesting that suddenly there is more to know for Rosewater.

In this novel, Dostoevsky develops the problem of human duplicity, which has its roots in the tormenting coexistence of a dual nature.

This was the 1st book written (in epistolary style) by #Dostoevsky (age 24), yet it has the same complexity as his later works. It‘s a story of love, despair, poverty social economy and books as told thru the correspondence between Makar and Barbara. I recommend it for FD fans. For those who have not read his work start with Crime & Punishment. This will need a reread. Does any one have a fave FD book they recommend? Brother Karamazov is mine.

A copy, surprisingly well preserved, that belonged to the Brothers Karamazov.

"Throughout his life the ax had been hanging over his head, and he had waited for the shot between unspeakable torture. The ax breaks down: the blow was deadly!

My pick for #90'sInJuly #InsaneInTheBrain pick is the #Dostoevsky pick of man and his ramblings as he descends to the underground. @Robothugs @Cinfhen

A classic worth reading. Definitely good to listen to on audiobook as well. A story with charactwrs and dialogue at its heart, it's more than the simple crime that is committed and the punishment he has to go through. It's about people and the world they live in and the decisions they make. Worth the read!
