    Fyodor Dostoyevsky

    Fyodor Dostoyevsky (1821–1881) was a Russian novelist and philosopher whose works examined the human psyche of the nineteenth century. Dostoyevsky is considered one of the greatest writers in world literature, with titles such as Crime and Punishment; Notes from Underground, one of the first existential novellas ever written; and Poor Folk, Russia’s first “social novel.”

      With so many reviews and descriptions of this book, I'll just add my few impressions for what they're worth -- maybe two cents! I thought it was your typically too-long Russian novel; however I found it more interesting and accessible than that other famous work, War and Peace. The manicness of Dmitri, the spiritual struggle of Ivan, and the purity of Alyosha were well-developed as was the stinkiness of their father.As to the length...somebody kills dear ol' dad and, really, who cares. The man was an evil snake. I realize this is a major part of the plot, but I got tired of visiting the scene of the crime over and over. This book could have been just as effective if it had been 200 pages shorter. Now, don't get me wrong, I liked the book for the most part even though I had to draw a Venn diagram to keep all the love convolutions straight. Some parts were downright brilliant, especially when Alyosha tries to aid the family of the boy who bit him and the appeal by Dmitri's attorney. I wish I had the luxury of reading a book of this magnitude without all the interruptions of life and other books sandwiched in (I've been reading this book for a month). Perhaps then I could better appreciate Dostoyevsky's acute attention to detail.

      There's just something gorgeous about the language in Dostoyevsky. Even when the characters are insane and unpredictable, and you can never quite be sure what they are going to do next.

      El libro está incompleto es interesante, pero no se puede concluir
    • 2/5
      This novel is full of:

      - Repetition. For some reason everyone in that village thinks that others are deaf. And they should repeat any important sentences twice. It would be cool if only one character did it, but it seems it does not matter how well or bad educated you are. Repeating sentences is cool.

      - Sick people. Main reason of sickness is being worried. No less than three characters would get fever and bed rest for weeks after worrying too much. There are also other source of sickness to the point of wondering if the water around there is drinkable at all.

      - Unrealistic dialogues. Monologue is the main way of conversing, it seems. Always about God, ethics or any other abstract topic, of course.

      - More repetition. I hope not to reveal much saying there will be a trial in the novel. Witnesses will repeat everything which had happened in the novel till that point. Then the public prosecutor will summarize it again and then the defense lawyer will repeat it for the fourth time. Each with a slight different angle and explaining about the Russian soul. This part is so dry that even people giving 5 stars to the novel complains about it.

      - Exaggeration. This is the pattern used by half of the characters around 40 or 50 times in the novel:
      I will unless . Serious guys, you are way too dramatic.

      - Lack of speech. Often, way too often something happens and some character is speechless. Which is cool because some other will start its 10pages monologue so someone has to give room.

      - Lack of resolution. Sure Dostoyevsky wanted to make a second and third part of this, but could have rounded up this one a little bit more. Like, what happened with Liza, she disappears 300pages before the end and there is no hint of what's going on with that.



      I could continue. I've seen the rest of the reviews. Lots of 5 stars. I've read them, I can't buy the arguments.
      For instance: "It has friendship, family, doubt, self-sacrifice. Everything what's being human"
      Sure, but so does other many many books. Damn, Hyperion, a sci-fy book, read it, the consul story only got all that. And that's one of 7 pilgrims.

      Other argument "Very realistic" . Come on, the conversations there were ridiculous as well as most of the characters. They are extreme characters to represent ideas "the passion" "the rationale" "the faith" etc. It was everything but realistic.

      I've also seen reviews of people saying things like "slow, boring, took me forever" and give it 5 stars...


      If anything I can buy it made you think. Nice. I like that, extra star for it.

      But Dostoyevsky totally blew up this one. He needed more sun there and going out for a walk instead of so many hours writing, would he have finish this book at a 200 pages mark, it would have been good. Delete monologues and repetitions, that's 400pages off at least.

      Well, to me, it seems a bit ridiculous to even attempt a review of this novel. When review has come to represent observations and criticisms or plot re-hashings, there really seems to be little I, or anyone for that matter, could say about The Brothers Karamazov that isn't already known or hasn't already been said by someone wiser and abler. If I were brilliant, I could share a spur-of-the-moment haiku that appropriately captures my feelings for this story. But I'm not. Brilliant, that is. So how about this: it's Russian, it's rich and it's revered. Read it.
    • 5/5
      Amazing. More interesting and strikingly modern goings-on here than in any other 19th century novel besides Moby Dick, with much more believable characters. I could have done with much more of Ivan Karamazov and less of Alyosha and Dmitri, and certainly the Elder Zosima outstayed his welcome and added a month or two to the time it took me to finish the book. Ivan's freethinking riffs and battle against religious nonsense are stirring and heroic--they're the reason I'll return to the book in year to come.

    • 3/5
      2 stars for the first half, 3.5 stars for the second half, compromising with three. The first half was MIND-NUMBINGLY BORING and I could not make myself care about it, but once the crime happened it started getting interesting to me. There was a LOT that could have been edited out even in the more interesting second half, though.
    • 5/5
      It took me a year or so to finish this- but I'm so glad I did. Though I took a long time to understand and warm up to the characters, they are brilliantly vivid and alive. All through the book I tried to place myself among the Karamazov brothers but found a piece of each in me. Ivan the intellectual, Alyosha the monk, and Mitya the hedonist; the brothers are magnificently crafted archetypes. The book made me think a lot and I believe I'll be pondering over it for a long time after.
    • 3/5
      I read this while in high school, with no real context for it (beyond the other Dostoyevsky, Turgenev, etc that I was also reading), so I'm sure I missed huge swathes of it. Nevertheless, I really liked it. I wish he'd edited a bit, though--40 pages for one monologue seems a bit much, particularly when it's then answered by ANOTHER 40 pages by his companion.
    • 5/5
      This is one of the few books of Dostojevski that still are readable. And what a feast! This book is as "grand" as much of the other great work of D. but, at least here you can find a story that you can follow till the end. And what a beautifull story, thrilling till the end, and touching the very escence of being human.Is eigenlijk een van de weinige boeken van Dostojevski die nog echt overeind blijft, maar dan wel ineens een topper (en een klepper). Het is even breedvoerig (zoniet nog meer) dan de anderen, maar er steekt een verhaallijn in die tot op het eind wordt gevolgd. Stilistisch bovendien prachtig breeduit vertellend. De figuren worden bijna allemaal goed uitgewerkt. Aljosja is duidelijk de hoofdfiguur. En natuurlijk is het verhaal van de Groot-Inquisiteur een klassieker, zij het dat de slavofiele inslag ons westerlingen erg bevreemd.Eerste keer gelezen toen ik 17 jaar was; ik was onmiddellijk gegrepen.

      I admit I did not finish this book. But I did read about 2/3 of the book (and all of the Cliff's Notes). I appreciate Dostoyevsky's work but he spends so much time telling us what he is going to tell us, it just drove me crazy. Still, he is a master of the psychological novel. I highly recommend [Crime and Punishment] instead.

      This book is listed just about everywhere as a "must read". I have had the book on my shelves for a few years and grew bored with it easily. I am now a big fan of the group read as I think this finally gave me the encouragement to finish this lengthy novel.I am glad that I have read it, and this book is a great tool for discussions of socialism, philosophy, and religion. Parts of it are torture to read, and others are riveting. The story is that of the tumultuous relationship of Fydoor Karamazov and his sons, Dmitri, Ivan, and Alexy. Complete with drunken debauchery, greed, and treatises on heaven versus hell and good versus evil, the Brothers Karamazov is best read in small segments.

      Aparte del valor extraordinario de la novela (acortada, en esta versión) se le suma el valor de la lectura magnífica de Daniel Quintero. El conjunto es una experiencia única de placer estético, emoción y satisfacción intelectual; creo que supera la de cualquier otro arte.
    • 5/5
      This is a stellar book, and purportedly the one that Dostoevsky himself felt tied up everything he wanted to say about everything. It falls into three main sections: a back-story contrasting the religious zeal of Alyosha and the monastic practices of the time with the evil in the hearts of his family; a who-dunnit laid out marvelously through the perspectives of different characters in the book, so that you the reader are confused even about what they themselves know; and a murder trial that deals with themes of innocence until proven guilty and reasonable doubt that, to me, come off as so American that it is astonishing to see them play out in a nineteenth-century Russian context. Though a second novel continuing the story was supposedly going to follow this one, Dostoevsky ends it in just the right place for its impact to resonate powerfully.I do have to say, however, that this book is long, and takes some time getting around to the main action. Once there, it seems to race ahead faster than you would necessarily like; if you have the patience to savour almost 600 pages leading up to the climax, you're probably more than willing to see the dénouement wind down at a pace just as rewarding of slow and deliberate reading. I would still say that "Crime and Punishment" is my favourite of the author's novels after reading his four most famous over the course of this year, and in a way this book felt like a sort of extended cut of "Star Wars;" it felt like Dostoevsky took the main concepts of "Crime and Punishment" and decided it would have been better if he had said much, much more in that story. If you're not a big fan of the classics, or nineteenth-century language, or the complexities of Russian writing, and you think you have just enough mettle for one Dostoevsky book, "Crime and Punishment" is the one I would recommend. However, if that book and others of the same ilk are the type to bring you infinite joy, then this is definitely a worthy addition to your reading list as well.
    • 5/5
      I am one who believes this is a classic that stands the test of time. A wonderful story about religion, about good and evil, about family. Yes, the author digresses from the main story; today, such a manuscript would undoubtedly be edited down. But we would then miss so many wonderful, thought-provoking ideas about human nature. Worth reading.
