The Brothers Karamazov - Fyodor Dostoevsky

I'm about halfway through, and while it is interesting, I can't really wrap my head around Russian culture, so I get lost sometimes. I won't deny that it's great though.

It's been awhile since I've read a book with such a anti religious/republican slant... good times, plus the scientist writer is very attractive.

Googled and amproved.

Anyone have any suggestions for a ****ens read? I've managed to avoid him through my schooling and I hear not so great things. I was going to shoot in with Tale of Two Cities but I was hoping to grab some public opinion.

Nicholas Nickleby's my fav. It's not as sappy as some of the others and it was before all his books became polemics.

I'll give that a shot then.

Don't know if I've ever put this up here, but any fan of horror should check this out:
