Levin is a huge autist

Also, shit book desu, meaningless fiction with no substance or higher purpose, Dostoevsky runs circles around this hack.

I liked and disliked Anna Karenina. I agree, Levin was autistic and a frustrating character to read. I literally couldn't give a single shit about how much he likes farming or hunting.

If the book focused more on the love affair of Kitty and Levin, and more on the drama of Anna and Vronsky, I would have enjoyed it a lot more. There was too much dull scenes. I get they're supposed to show how Levin grows throughout the novel, but Levin is boring as fuck to begin with.

Still a decent book, though, I think.

Nabokov knows only about prose, he's the perfect example of style over substance. the likes of him should not be allowed to speak about writers like dosto. dosto is the reason why there are professions like 'editor'

Antoine Roquentin from Nausea. Dude probably had the downs.

Exactly. Damn good prose. They guy wrote a story for the perspective of a pedophile and it was good for Christ's sake. But also consider that that book was shit on all other accounts

Mersault might have been a edgy fuck, but he did shoot up an arab.

He's alright in my book.
