Los Hermanos Karamazov (The Brothers Karamazov) (Abridged) Audiobook

" How can I dare give a review to this book, analyze what is good or bad with a cold, composed attitude? I cannot! I cannot! It is joyful that I've finished this book, and sad that I've finished this book! If there is a book that will ever make me feel like this again... I will be scared. "

" Took me ages to get into this, but as always with the Russian classics, I loved the hysterical over dramatic behaviour of the men AND women. Made me able to feel that I was in the story, with not much detail of the surroundings. I like that. "

" A really good book that has a really good plot. I like the characters. and I think I will appreciate the story more when I read for a second time. "

" Just when you think it won't get any worse... "

" This is MY kind of book. Actually, this IS my book! Meaty, weighty, LONG! And no surprises. You know what you're getting yourself into from the get go. First read in College. Love it. "

" All other fiction pales in comparison. It will blow you away. "

" Possibly the best novel I've ever read. There is no reason to not read this book. "

" The greatest novel ever written. A tapestry in the study of humanity "

" The way religious undertones and scripture references are worked into the story is second to none. Also, the characters are really good and their interactions give insight to Russian thought and culture at the time. "

" I like the screening of this book, by soviet film group. From 1986. "

" What a book. Dostoevsky delves into the human mind and all its weaknesses with a precision like that of an exacto knife--cutting deep and true. While I found this book not as engaging as Crime and Punishment, I was nonetheless drawn into the souls of the three main characters. Great book. "

" I gave this book two stars out of respect for it being a classic and because I know my opinion is probably wrong or something. But I actually think this is one of the worst books I have ever read. Will someone please explain Russian literature to me. "

" Hated this book! He could've written the same novel in 400 pages. "

" A great classic, fictional commentary on human behavior. The progress of the book plateaus but the reader is still able to learn. "

" Simply the best. Among the top 5 novels ever written without a doubt. Pay close attention to Alyosha and Zosima, the true heroes of the novel. "

" Alwaad Dostoyevsky da ma3lem.No need 2 elaborate.Absat ya3em elhag!! "

" One of my all time favorite books from one of my all time favorite authors. "

" Maybe one of the best books I'ver ever read. "

" read again..ah..a medley of human passions.. "

" Dense read, I tried to read this when I was younger and hated it, came back to it at 20 and really enjoyed it. Something you need to be in the mood for, and not something you should be "forced" to read for a class because it's a "classic." You will enjoy it much more reading it in your own time. "

" Excellent book that deserves not only to be read, but to be talked and meditated on. Speaks extensively of guilt, sin, evil, and the existence of God. Just a little long. "

" I can't decide whether "War and Peace" or "The Brothers Karamazov" is the greatest novel ever written. And what difference does it make? "

" Read this circa 1978, want to reread. I'll probably get more out of it now. "

" Il capolavoro di ogni tempo.E non ho altro da aggiungere. "

" The first time I read this, I thought it would kill me. Now I hold it as a measuring point for other books. And I think it could kill most books in page to page combat. "

" The Brothers Karamazov, included in Time Magazine's 10 Greatest Books of All Time, proves to be one great reading experience. The large discourse on philosophy, religion is a highlight in this last book of Dostoyevsky. "

" a very unusual story. there's a lot to read into and a fair amount of social commentary and philosophical implications surrounding the death/murder of the asshole dad. Does god exist? "

" the author is extemely details in his descrption of the characters of the brothers and the plot and it was a bit too tedious for me for a comfortable read.... returned it back after around 90 pages of reading..will take it up again in leisure and read it .. "

" *The* classic. What can I say? "

" 300 pages with these dreadful characters was enough. 550 more pages to go.....not for me. I'm done with Dostoyevsky. I'm done with russians as a group. "
