About this audiobook

The final masterpiece from the celebrated author of "Crime and Punishment" and "The Idiot.".. This extraordinary novel, Dostoyevsky s last and greatest work, tells the dramatic story of four brothers Dmitri, pleasure-seeking, impatient, unruly . . . Ivan, brilliant and morose . . . Alyosha, gentle, loving, honest . . . and the illegitimate Smerdyakov, sly, silent, cruel. Driven by intense passion, they become involved in the brutal murder of their own father, one of the most loathsome characters in all literature. Featuring the famous chapter, The Grand Inquisitor, Dostoyevsky's final masterpiece is at once a complex character study, a riveting murder mystery, and a fascinating examination of man's morality and the question of God's existence.

This is one of the most boring books ever read. Speeding up the playback speed helps a little. I can't imagine a person liking this book unless they like boring religious bs.

Saw a bad review about the narration and wanted to weigh in my opinion. In the beginning it is a little distracting. Now a couple hours in, it's very enjoyable. I find myself imitating the narrator's accent in my head, imagining him narrating my life and the lives of my cats. The man certainly has charisma, and the beginning of this book is a little slow, so he kind of overpowers it. But given a little longer impression and a little getting-used-to, his voice has enriched my life in a strange way. Worth listening to.
