Where to start with him?

Lol look at all these noobs. Just start with BK senpai, that book is crunk AF fo real senpai.

Are the Pevear and Volokhonsky translations actually bad or is this a meme? I was perfectly satisfied and incredibly moved by their translation of Notes but I haven't sunk my teeth into any of Dosto's novels yet.

Their translations feel very clunky to me. They retain maybe a bit too much of Russian sentence structure that doesn't translate very well into English. It's entirely up to personal taste though, because I guess that sentence structure does add something to the work aside from making it feel a little clunky.

I just finished tbk

illyushas funeral got me good

DEMONS


just open your ass to the enormous amount of names and characters and go.

no lube needed it's the funniest to read(but not the quickest)

>illyushas funeral
yeah :(

C&P -> notes -> demons -> idiot -> tkb -> other works

Read some sort stories before c&p or after demons

C&P or Notes -> whichever of those you didn't read -> The Brothers Karamazov -> The Idiot or Demons -> whichever of those you didn't read -> short stories or The House of the Dead -> whichever of those you didn't read -> his other novels

under rated. Anyone know some other eastern writers who are under appreciated in the west
