Damn. Okay so some parts of this were really slow and a bit tedious but the profound themes in this book... the dialogue, its gut-wrenching and elevating. i did really like it, especially toward the end. last 150 pages I'd say were the best. Likely will not read this again but certain parts are literary gold. Also can I just say I love Sonya as a character. Something in her is just so beautiful to me. Excellent book.

It's funny that my two favorite books of all time were written by Russian authors who didn't much like eachother. Ha.

For me the only thing I gained was the ability to understand references to it which are few and far between

Did I read it yes
Did I know what I read no
