Dostoevsky is for midwits.

written by alcoholic with gambling issues

For me it's Crime and Punishment.

>>25504658 >>25504670 What do you like?

>>25504676 Not wasting my time with reading.

>>25504658 Who is the thinking man's russian writer?

>>25504695 Dostoevsky

>>25504698 He's more for the intuiting man.

I read crime and punishment when i was like 13 Its not like dostoyevskyy is even for smart people or anything

>>25504714 Books aren't for pretentious wankery.

>>25504719 Of course they are

Notes from Underground and The House of the Dead are better in my honest opinion. t. literally The Underground Man

Russian literature is shit. Its pretty much like Hesse, nothing every happening, useless monologues about le suffering and cruelty of the world just with simpler language (hard to tell as I only read translations) and autistic obsessions with faith and church. I read Dostoyevsky and Tolstoi and after reaching the last page I felt like I stared at a blank wall for 700 pages, I learned nothing, I didnt get any new experiences or perspectives, I just read an old persons bitter reflection on their wasted life.

Show your cat

>>25504762 But Hesse is good though. Also, those types of novels and films where "nothing seems to happen" are the best ones. Because they let you digest what you read instead of spoon-feeding you. It's like saying you prefer Marvel slop over French cinema. It's of a plebeian taste. Honestly.

>>25504819 Maybe but why read a book that neither makes me more knowledgable or feel something. Russian literature is freezing time and thoughts, I am left with nothing in the end and forgot it the next day. I wish I could get into it but its not for me unfortunately.

>>25504873 How the hell couldn't you feel anything when reading Dostoevsky?

Underwhelming ending

>>25504966 Hes obviously a psychopath

It hits solid 7 on Gownometer

purple color is gay feminist color

>>25504695 I prefer Ukrainian writers

>>25504966 I not a woman or slav

>>25504977 It was supposed to be the part 1 of something bigger but he died

I don't like Dostojewski, I like Tolstoy
