I actually received this text as an ebook, since it is now in the public domain.  I think breaking it up like that helped me to absorb more of this text, which honestly is pretty difficult to read in English, since so many concepts of the Russian language cannot be gracefully translated.  That said, this is a very important piece of political literature, one which I believe should be required for study in all high schools to help students better understand the reality of Communism as opposed to the "horror stories" that students were told when I was young.  The ideals of Communism - that all should be equal and each should give any excess out to the rest of the population rather than hoarding it, as in capitalism - actually  make a great deal of sense.  The trouble is caused by the fact that humans absolutely cannot live an ideal existence.  Thus, a strong centralized government is created to force people to live that idealized existence, which just causes upset, rebellion and greed.  But I wander afield.  Let me just end by reiterating that this is a must-read for any politically-minded person, or for anyone at all in order to create a more balanced society.
