bibliotequeish 's review for:

The Brothers Karamazov by Fyodor Dostoevsky
2.0

More than a few people have said that this book changed their life.
I guess I'm just not that deep.

While I can understand that Dostoyevsky challenges the way many of us view free will, and can appreciate the argument that a good mans actions can lead to another mans crime, I was not compelled to self realization the way I was assured I would be.

I should mention that I went into this book with skepticism as I was also assured I would love crime and punishment and did not enjoy that book either.
