Does the English version of the book live up to its legend? I'm about to read this or atlas shrugged, try to talk myself out of atlas shrugged though lol.

Can you say that you've "read" The Brothers Karamazov if you read the Garnett translation? I was talking to someone recently, and he told me that I didn't experience the novel because I used that translation.

Is this supposed to be funny at all? I find Fyodor Pavlovich hilarious. I wish that I could read Russian to understand the tone better.

Would you argue that this is a Christian book, or more of an atheist one?

Personal question-- do you believe in God?

Just finished it. Why exactly is this considered a masterpiece?
I find it obviously unfinished and full of boring and unnecessarly long digressions.

I need to write a critical essay on a book of my choosing. I have picked the brothers karamazov as it is my favourite novel and got me into philosophy. Does anyone have any ideas concerning a unique or original outlook to drive my essay?

Just finished this. Is it even worth it to keep reading after this?

Also, Does God exist in this universe? Was Ivan's visitor the Devil, or was he simply Ivan's imagination?
