For me, it is Nikolai Stavrogin, intelligent, nihilistic and with a wicked sense of humor.

I only ever see bits and pieces of myself in characters. I'm not as elegant as Hamlet or as erudite as Daedalus or as pious as Alyosha...

But hot damn if Levin's return home to Petersburg in part one of AK wasn't almost entirely how I viewed a similar rejection. I can't wait to finish the book.

hey man, pick up Avsey's or MacAndrew's translation and read it in tandem with P&V's. honestly. make the decision yourself, but don't go the whole thousand pages wondering if the message could be communicated better.
because P&V is fuckin shite.
