An adventurous character study! And in an interesting format. The introduction to this Penguin Classics editions helped too.

Weltschmerz Russian way. What I really did not like about this read was poor and bad editing. Text was a bit hard for me since the translator used many archaic and foreign expressions.

It has several "disjointed" sections and deals with the manners ofthe upper class in early 19th century Russia, plus this guy who might not have a conscience. It's my favorite Russian novel, and not just because it's short.
