My rate of this read is a disgrace to Dostoyevsky and his brilliance, an incredible writer who just know how to insert his views on everything without you noticing. I don’t regret reading the entirety of it especially having to push through in certain sections..though learning so much of his philosophy in a well articulated fashion, but I must truthfully and painfully acknowledge that the plot and the characters were too much fanciful like an overcooked delicacy, for some unknown reason you might start to like Nastasya filoppovna -mind the spelling- but she end up murdered in most ambiguous ending , the prince who naturally gains your sympathy ends up in far more idiocy than he began , All in all a good read but not a masterpiece or anything compares to his Brothers karamazov or that of tolostoy,s Anna karenina
