Good value

Amazing quality!! Bargain. One of the world’s best reads. Each page is so deep. But for kids, friends as presents 🎁

This is probably Dostyevsky at his finest. It takes you into the people and surroundings, and challanges you all the way. The only fault is that it is not annotated.

I admire Fyodor but he has little artistic accomplishment or mind. Yet, I admire his heart, a criticism which contains a great deal of truth, for though his characters do act extravagantly, madly, almost, still their basis is firm enough underneath... The Brothers Karamazov... made a deep impression on me... he created some unforgettable scenes.. Madness you may call it, but therein may be the secret of his genius... I prefer the word exaltation, exaltation which can merge into madness, perhaps. In fact all great men have had that vein in them; it was the source of their greatness; the reasonable man achieves nothing

One of the best writers who ever lived and by far one of his best works. He explores so many universal themes and concepts and manages to integrate the meaning of life into one book. Very fascinating world Dostoevsky creates with his beautiful writing style and definitely a must read for anyone who is a reader

When Dostoevsky finally gets into the story it becomes clear that he is a high quality writer, unfortunately he takes 400 pages to get there. Before then we get lots of flab about characters who play only a minor part in the real action, these could have been introduced via the story and less time wasted on them. The character of Father Zossima gets tons of spiel and we go through his complete life story; apart from being Aloysha Karamazov's guiding inspiration, he takes no part in the story whatsoever. Dostoevsky, the 2nd half, describes Aloysha as his 'hero'. In fact he gets very little booktime as Dostoevsky concentrates on Dmitri Kazamov. At the end the prosecutor's final speech in the trial of ? ? for the murder of Dad Karamazov adds nothing new and goes on interminably. I was very disappointed by this novel, which some people think Dostoevsky's masterpiece.

Very pleased with this book! Although I can't read it without my glasses, print is really small- content is all that matters! Good to return and read classic books , so glad these aren't expensive. Definitely recommend

One of my favourite reads. Dostoevsky captures the complexities of human nature with extraordinary depth and compassion. It’s a slow burn, but each page offers something meaningful — a true classic for readers who enjoy thought-provoking literature.

The Karamazov Brothers (Os Irmãos Karamázov), de Fiódor Dostoiévski, é um clássico absoluto da literatura russa que combina drama familiar, investigação moral e reflexões filosóficas profundas. A história gira em torno da família Karamázov, explorando conflitos, paixões, culpa, fé e justiça, enquanto questiona a natureza humana e os dilemas éticos da vida. O grande diferencial da obra é a profundidade psicológica dos personagens e a habilidade de Dostoiévski em abordar temas universais de maneira intensa e envolvente. É ideal para leitores que apreciam romances complexos, com múltiplas camadas de significado e questionamentos sobre moralidade, religião e responsabilidade pessoal. Uma leitura desafiadora, mas extremamente recompensadora.

Great read, in any era.

Ver very very small fonts, painful to read.
