This discussion was made too early!!! I'm going to be reading that book right after Christmas break.

If a discussion comes out of this (as I have avoided that book like it would grow fangs and bite me so *I* won't be of any use), I'll move this to the subforum. If not, I'll simply lock it. mrgreen

okay...i thought maybe some people would have read it. Believe it or not, it's a really good book [except the ending. i hated the ending.] I was dreading reading it in class but it ended up being absolutely fascinating.

It's set in Russia, around the time of the revolution, isn't it?

yes

I think I might be getting it confused with Dr. Zhivago. confused

I'm not sure what that is...

Dr. Zhivago is a novel that is set during the time of the Russian revolution. Look it up on Wikipedia.

Crime and Punishment was written at least 30 years before Dr. Zhivago is set so I was mistaken.
