I've already read the large majority of the rest of Dostoevsky's works and already knew that I don't like his writing and narrative style. I pushed through Crime and Punishment for it's place in literary canon, and that was a mistake. I absolutely despise this man's writing. I won't rate the book, because I don't think it's overtly bad literature and it doesn't deserve my horrible rating. Dostoevsky's writing and my taste just seem to be mutually exclusive.

Dostojevskijs språk är så vackert, men kära nån, han behöver nog lite terapi (Raskolnikov också, definitivt. Kanske alla karaktärer. Ingen mår bra. Alla mår piss). Även om jag älskade boken, hela sättet den var skriven på, och hur man på så många sätt sympatiserade med en så typisk antihjälte, var den också helt jävla sjuk. Trauma. På riktigt.
