أحتمال أنني تشبعت من كتب أدب السجون وارد جدًا، ولكني فعلا لم استطيع الأستمتاع بهذا الكتاب كثيرا فقد شعرت بأنه ممل وفيه تفاصيل زائدة كان من الممكن تجاوزها ولكني مازلت مستمتعة بالشخصيات التي تم ذكرها وبالطبع النهاية. من الممكن انه أقل كتب دوستويفسكي مستوى ولكنه مايزال رائع.

It amazes me Dostoyevsky’s writing is modern in style and observations of human nature .
My favorite part was his take on “freedom” and the idea of it vs the execution of it . Reading this i discovered parallels to my co-workers in corporate America doing time waiting until the end when they can be “free”.
