I despised this book. Whoever loved needs a life. Read the Lord of the Rings. Tolkien is a fantasy God!!
Reader’s Rating: 1 / 5
I have read this book in its original Russian. You Americans know nothing. One cannot possibly translate this book and do it justice. All readers who reflect they know Dostoyevsky must master the Russian language before they can admit to appreciating it. You idiots!!

Don’t waste your time reading this book – this book is dreadful! This book was supposed to be so excellent, according to the additional reviews, and it’s certainly not a excellent novel. In fact, this is by far the worst novel I have read in my life. I reflect one of the additional reviewers hit the nail on the head – most of this book just seems like random writing and ultimately it has no real purpose for carrying forwards the plot line. Indeed, it certainly seems like he was just trying to meet a word count for the publisher. The edition of the book I read was slightly over 700 pages, and it could have easily been cut-rate to 300 lacking distressing in any way the plot line. Thus the reader is left to swallow 400 pages of pointless writing that just seems like “waffling” to mention the term used in England to clarify writing that leads you no where. Not only that, but the 300 pages devoted to really explaining the plot are not that appealing anyway. The plot line of the novel is incredibly implausible; a prince who is an “idiot” but on occasions doesn’t seem like such an idiot after all and who suffers from a mysterious illness of “idiocy” that could not be marked as an actual illness by modern medicine. Moreover, one of the principal characters in the novel, Aglaia Yepanchin supposedly is madly in like with the prince while at the same time building fun of him in a very rude way right in front of his nose – am I the only one here who thinks this is JUST a small implausible? And then just to make matters worse, and as an sample after having to swallow 650 pages of horrible writing, near the end of the novel Dostoyevski puts in the mouth of the prince two full pages of the most outrageous slander against the Catholic religion I have read in my life. Supposedly, according to Dosteyvski, atheism comes from the Catholic religion – certainly Dosteyevski doesn’t hide his hatred for the Catholic faith. Even atheists would laugh at such an absurd proposition.

This book was a dull read. The ending I thought was excellent, but everything before that was a bore. If you want to read a excellent F.D. book read Crime and Punishment, a perfect opposite in which the ending was stupid, but everything else was a thrill.

Goooood Lord.
Wow.
Holy God.
The Idiot.
Just finished this terrible boy.
Whew…I gotta go grab and iced-t or soemthing.
Where do I recieve my certificate?
I did it. And none of my friends have ever done it.
So it was worth it.
I’m like, “I’m nearly done with the Idiot.”
And they’re like, “Couldn’t do it brah. It’s like he had two excellent books and the rest were sketches. Let me know who that one treats ya brah.”
This book must have been written in a time when many books were not being written. And people didn’t have movies. And the sat around all day staring at their walls. And had hedgehogs sold on the streets. It’s got some freaking sweet parts. Really. His metaphores on life in Christinaity are soemtimes mind blowing. But dude….come on. You were faking it a small when you wrote this.
“Yes. I have just finsihed my follow up to Crime and Punishemnet. It’s called the Idiot,” Dostovesky grimaces as he passes in the manuscript…
Beleive me. He knew this was dreadful too…He had to.
The tale?
Oh man…
Hurting…
An suffering.
This was not like Crime and Punishment or The Brothers…but it was still sweet in parts. But don;t read it. You are better off reading Island by Richard Laymon. But it is cool to said you have read it and it will give you things to reflect about. So maybe read it?
The 6 volume biography by Joseph Frank I have really establish to be better than most of Dostoevsky’s books. I would reccomend persons over this any day. It’s helpful to have read a few of his books before reading the biography. But that biography is just so freaking sweet. (I’ve only read the first three…)
The idiot.
Yep. That dude was an idiot.
I tired acting like him and people told me to get the hell out of thier presence. With their eyes. It’s no way to act. But…maybe?
Alright, I admit it…it is awesome to be simple. But was he?
Dostoevsky. I like the dude. He needed to take a vaction or something…
I hope I die lacking knowing my exact date and time.
I would say read this book if you don’t live by the ocean. If you live by the ocean, go to the ocean and erect a fire, bring a CD player and pop in Black Monk Time by The Monks and throw wood into the waves.
I do not live by the ocean.
