The Brothers Karamazov, Dostoevsky’s crowning achievement, is a tale of patricide and family rivalry that embodies the moral and spiritual dissolution of an entire society (Russia in the 1870s). It created a national furor comparable only to the excitement stirred by the publication, in 1866, of Crime and Punishment. To Dostoevsky, The Brothers Karamazov captured the quintessence of Russian character in all its exaltation, compassion, and profligacy. Significantly, the book was on Tolstoy’s bedside table when he died. Readers in every language have since accepted Dostoevsky’s own evaluation of this work and have gone further by proclaiming it one of the few great novels of all ages and countries. ([source][1])

Uma obra densa demais para os tempos rápidos atuais.

Nesse livro Dostoievski me surpreendeu com uma narrativa bem construída, detalhada e rica.

Conheço livros detalhados, no entanto esse me surpreendeu. Quem diria que Ilucha teria papel tão importante? Quem diria que Katalina e Mitya teriam um momento de redenção? Discordo apenas em uma parte do narrador, mas longe de mim querer ditar algo a obra. Aliocha não é o herói aqui, talvez apenas o mais virtuoso. Acho que não há heróis entre os Karamazov.
