Why does he say "Dosteeyevsky"? Is that actually how it's pronounced? It sounds retarded and nothing like how it's spelled.

In Canada, I don't know why, but we have strange pronunciations of certain proper nouns:
>"Dosteeyevsky"
>Roodyerd Kipling
>Leo Tilstoy
>Homer's Odyssoy

he should just mention p&v or mcduff or whoever it is that he actually read, instead of Дocтoeвcкий who he has never actually read

p&v is an utter shitshow, the "pevearsion" article that gets posted here a lot is correct in its critiques of their horrific work, but bizarre in its glorification of garnett's stilted garbage
mcduff is kino
