What happens when faith, reason, and desire pull a man in opposite directions? The Brothers Karamazov is a study of the soul, framed by a father’s murder and the chaos it leaves behind. Through the lives of three brothers (one ruled by passion, one by intellect, and one by faith) Dostoevsky unearths the fault lines of morality, guilt, and free will. A novel of violence and revelation, it does not seek to provide answers, only to leave the reader wrestling with the weight of its questions and the burden of self-reflection.
İvan Federoviç Karamazov seni o kadar iyi anlıyor ve seni o kadar iyi özümsüyorum ki, sen bensin...

"Mutlaka dirileceğiz, mutlaka birbirimizi göreceğiz ve olan biten her şeyi birbirimize neşeyle, sevinçle anlatacağız."
"Babacığım, mezarımı kapattıkları zaman üzerine ekmek kabuklarını serp, serçeler gelsinler, onların geldiklerini duyarsam yalnız olmadığıma sevimirim."
"Aydın bir rus ateistininn ruhunu al, balinanın karnında üç gün ve üç gece dua eden Yunus Peygamber'in ruhuyla karıştır, al işte sana yolun ortasına yatan bu düşünürün karakteri."

Brilliant! Probably the best book I've read ever. Certainly the hardest to put down.
The three brothers created and set out into the world by Dostoevsky evolve and grow towards very different paths in life. A painting comes alive before our eyes to exhibit and highlight the choices they make and what these bring back, the way it shapes them, their life and the people around them.
Doubt only leads to chaos, dissatisfaction and unhappiness. Faith and love lead to peace, forgiveness, kindness.
To read this book is to involve in an analysis of one's own religious beliefs and life philosophies.
Through his novel, the autor teaches us that we can overcome terrible tragedy and loss if we set our minds to pursue art, kindness and spiritual purity.

I have loved The Idiot and Notes from Underground, and this novel was masterful even by those standards. Reading Dostoyevsky makes me feel like a more complete human. Morality is no mere game. Now, I read other authors and wonder why they can’t take questions of morality, faith, humanity, and meaning as seriously as Dostoyevsky did. I am happy to have read this novel before dying and look forward to reading it again someday.
