The Village of Stepanchikovo: And Its Inhabitants: From the Notes of an Unknown by Fyodor Dostoevsky

4.0

This book was a whole lot different from any Dostoyevsky I’ve read, I did not finish his other works that I started because I seem to only pick him up in the beginning of a reading slump, but I can tell that this book is really different from the two I started. And it makes sense when you understand his life, this was one of his early books and crime and punishment and the idiot were written after him being sentenced to force labor in Siberia. It clearly shows that his atitude towards the world clearly changed.
This was a wholesome rural life book, with a great antagonist to hate and some really characterized individuals, it was a nice late spring read and I’m wondering if maybe I should read Dostoyevsky chronologically.
