Fyodor Dostoevsky

A genius. I am around two thirds through his epic Crime and Punishment, my third Dostoevsky novel (counting the brief Notes From Underground) and I am so in awe of his ability to capture deep psychological turmoil and thoughts and the feelings of people living in St. Petersburg Russia over 100 years ago, and yet I feel I know them. I am them. We are. More to come on this author.
