5.0

В таких бытовых описаниях даже великий писатель становится местами мелочным.
Но больше потрясает целостность человека, который смог выдержать такие нечеловеческие условия, и сохранить себя.
И любопытен непреодолимый барьер между людьми разных классов, остающийся даже после того, как их привели и к одному статусу и в одни условия. При всей объективности писателя, который вроде даже пытается сказать об обратном.
Поражает, за что люди оказывались в таких нечеловеческих условиях - в том числе и сам Достоевский.
Ну и конечно, книга интересна в плане бытовых деталей того времени.
