God I love Dosto so much. Haven't read a book in 3 months and 15 pages into The Idiot I'm starting to fall in love with reading again. I haven't felt this way since I read Brothers Karamazov a couple years ago. The characters, the dialogue, Dosto is a God. I don't care how basic his writing style is. Fuck what that clown Nabokov said.

I have bad news for you but the ending of The Idiot sucks. It’s a good time until then, at least. Read it as a series of vignettes rather than a story with a point and you’ll be happier for it.

The Idiot is his best novel. Other ones are not so readable, except maybe Crime and Punishment or Demons.

I have the feeling that Dostoy was blessed with the gift of writing. He was obvoiusly socially handicapped/autistic and he had few of the modern writing conventions to rely on. Yet he wrote some of the most lasting, social psychological works ever conceived. I am impressed and also not surprised that he was a child of St:Petersberg.
