Title: Simply THE Best Novel I Have Ever Read
Product review: Growing up religious, I found the Brothers Karamazov undeniably compelling. Like any good novel, the theme's of the present are masterfully woven and presented. I especially enjoyed the heaviness of the book's theological and philosophical quandaries. The characters are believable and evoke pathos, the realistic dialog can often be hilarious, and there is this almost Nietzschean delight in the rational dismantling of religious sentiments. Don't get me wrong, Dostoevsky ultimately intended to give religion (particularly Eastern Christianity) a powerful and existential justification, but he does this alongside an ingenious and heartfelt ridicule of the very faith he supports in the end. I find this kind of heavy clashing of dissonant world views both difficult and cathartic to read. Frickin' great book!
