This book actually made me cry. I get tears in my eyes just thinking about it. Not his "best" work but I was shocked how much it made me feel.
Is Dostoevsky good?
Is there a polemic againat N.'s view of dosto written by a good literary critic?
Most of his books have like five competing plot lines wherein the 'main' plot could be expressed in a fifth of the space, so if you like that (I love it) he's good. There's a shitton of psychology in his works so you really have to immerse yourself in it
No, because any serious literary critic agrees with Nabokov.

this is not even true
What isn't true
form what i've read, there really aren't 5 plot lines
Yeah, that book got my heart rate up a few times. It also was one of the few books to ever make me cry.
the best
I cant think of no other major classic writer that is more relevant nowadays
