بسیار ضعیف، مبتدی و فاقد محتوا !!!
داستایفسکی یکی از نویسندگان محبوب من است، اما از خواندن این کتاب نه تنها لذت نبردم،‌ بلکه از خریدش احساس پشیمانی هم می‌کنم.
بله، داستایفسکی مبتدی بود اما در نخستین داستانی که در جوانی نوشت(بیچارگان) هم به این اندازه ضعیف نبود! و این مایه‌ی تعجب من بود، البته دو داستان آخر کتاب، چند سر و گردن بالاتر از پنج داستان نخست بودند اما آن‌ها هم توجه من را جلب نکردند.

معرفی‌ نامه‌
رویای آدم مضحک، عنوان یک مجموعه‌ی داستان کوتاه متشکل از هفت داستان به نام‌های «آقای پروخارچین»، «پولزونکوف»، «دزد شرافتمند»، «درخت کریسمس و ازدواج»، «ماری دهقان»، «کروکودیل» و «رؤیای آدم مضحک» به قلم داستایسفکی‌ست.

نقل‌قول نامه
"به محض این‌که حقیقت را شناخته و دیده باشید، می‌دانید که عین حقیقت است و هیچ حقیقتِ دیگری در کار نیست، چه خواب باشید چه بیدار."

کارنامه
در آخر به مانند روال گذشته در خصوص امتیازدهی به کتاب‌های مجموعه‌ی داستان، به هر یک از داستان‌ها به شرح زیر نمره‌ی جداگانه داده‌ام:
آقای پروخارچین ۱ستاره٬ پولزونکوف ۱ستاره٬ دزد شرافتمند ۲ستاره٬ درخت کریسمس و ازدواج ۲ستاره٬ ماری دهقان ۲ستاره٬ کروکودیل ۳ستاره و رؤیای آدم مضحک ۳ستاره، نهایتا ۱۴ ستاره برای ۷ داستانِ کوتاه که معدل ۲ستاره برای این مجموعه داستان منظور می‌نمایم.

I can see in this short story the Christian nationalism that eventually came to define Dostoevsky at the end of his life - and that makes me so dislike him personally as much as I love his works. The story itself is less of a story structurally and more of a thought experiment. Through the narrator Dostoevsky speaks of his own philosophy. Yet the final note, when our narrator says people ought to love each other as they love themselves, rings discordant to me. I wonder if hat was on purpose, if Dostoevsky was in some ways undermining our narrator.

All in all it was a good enough story, though I am a little nervous about reading the Brothers Karamazov after this. At the end of the day I have enjoyed other late Dostoevsky works, so I'm not going to focus on it too much. For now.
