A review by sarasofraz
The Meek One by Fyodor Dostoevsky
2.0
I get why so many people love Dostoyevsky. His characters are often complicated, varied and very real. but I honestly did not find anything rewarding in this story.
I have not read anything else by him, so I might someday try my best at Crime and Punishment. Yet from what I know about the book I can tell it is not really something I would find interesting.
This book basically follows the incoherent ramblings of a middle-aged man who decided to marry a 16-year old girl, who out of despair/fear/panic or whatever, decided to commit suicide, after the fact. I honestly have no sympathies for the man, and found this whole story boring, annoying and frankly unreadable. it just isnt for me.
