1- è un libro impegnativo (ma non troppo), questo è vero, infondo state leggendo un classico russo che non può avere la facilità di lettura di un fantasy, avrà alcuni momenti più lenti ma non è solo così. Questo libro infatti nonostante richieda un attenzione particolare, se letto in un momento adatto scorre anche molto velocemente, soprattutto nei punti salienti, considerando che è stato scritto circa 150 anni fa diciamo che non ha la pesantezza asfissiante di un classicone noioso, anzi, tutt'altro.
2- Il dubbio, questo libro ti mette sempre in dubbio, non solo la tua visione dell'omicidio in generale ma anche il tuo rapporto con la morale. Ci saranno momenti in cui ci si ritrova a "tifare" in un certo senso per il protagonista nonostante abbia commesso dal punto di vista morale un crimine orribile.
3- Archi narrativi, questo libro si articola anche su altri livelli di complessità, in particolare si organizza su diversi archi narrativi, anche le vicende che accadono alle persone che sono intorno al protagonista denotano una società marcia e malata, si parla infatti di degrado, prostituzione, morte e malattie mentali oltre che fisiche.
Che dire, a me è piaciuto veramente tanto, consiglierei però di prepararsi psicologicamente prima di questo libro perchè è impegnativo sia come lettura che come contenuti
