Anyone else really sad at the lost potential? Could this be one of the greatest unfinished works in literary history?

>> No.10559878

>Could this be one of the greatest unfinished works

I mean, The Great Inquisitor alone is enough to make TBK a great book. And the episode between Ivan and the Devil.

Never. The series would end with him becoming a elder

Btw, Dosetuovsky had a son named Aloysha who died from severe epileptic attacks

Best red faced wojak I've seen yet. The look of desperation and madness at once, along with the damning attempt at suicide even though a nuclear bomb has gone off, wanting the end to come that much sooner, with eyes tearing up in a droop of mock hilarity from the wells of molasses moving indigestion coursing over the indominatable notion of self loathing and helplessness really just makes me happy that someone took the time to draw it so I could experience my own angst exaggerated yet personified superficially

I had a feeling. Pure unbridled human emotion emptied into a 5 minute edit in a rush of ecstasy. Should be anthologized desu.
