Do we like Dimitri? I thought he was an admirable character, though governed solely by passion.
I'm only halfway through the first book. So far, Dimitri seems just as much of an asshole as Fyodor, if less of a glutton
>tfw Annushka already drizzled the olive oil
>tfw Berlioz is on a one-way ride down to flavor town
Wasn't Dmitri like 28 and Ivan like 24?

I actually have a cover, which has their faces drawn on, hold on, gonna post a pic
Ignore the text, it's a danish translation
I've seen a lot of book covers and stage adaptations where they look old as fuck, but the text seems to indicate Alyosha is 20, Ivan is 24, and Dmitri seems like he's in his late 20s to mid 30s.
I'm guessing by the beard, that Dmitrij is the middle one, Aljosja right and Ivan left

More Against The Day
is against the day a good novel of pynchon?
I liked it. If you're a plot-focused reader you might feel as though 3/4s of it could be cut. The central story is a diasporic family drama. A tragedy happens, and a family scatters for ten years, reunites, blah blah blah. It's very bittersweet and narrow in its central focus, but it's also what you'd call sprawling and goofy with it's huge cast of characters.
It's excessively wordy and indulgent to some. It has a huge level of attention to historical detail, setting, and contemporary academia, while simultaneously straying far from realism. I'd say it's exactly halfway between Gravity's Rainbow and Mason & Dixon in terms of scope, detail, and aesthetic.
Here's an image of some side characters.

seems pretty aesthetic. I don't really about anything other than the language being interesting

Are you me? I had the exact same thought when reading BK.

Sancho Panza
The meat of the book (and my favorite parts) are anything having to do with the Traverse family. When relistening to the audiobook at work I find myself asking "when's my next Traverse scene?"

And while we're at BK
Aloysha was a young looking, red cheeks and light brown bowlcut
Ivan was Veeky Forums looking, circle spectacles and messy black hair
Dmitri was a bit disheveled, mustache and messy black hair

My master is time, he whips me all day. Long roads are certain. Bad times may lie ahead. Still and all, I believe in myself and in that sake I transfer my conviction to you.

Love how this guy really loved to crash children's bicycles - that really made me cry as a kid.
Dimitri is a chad, all the ladies are swooning over him in the courtroom even though they think he did it, but he's not really admirable or despicable
Guy's a fucking god, yo
