… because everything’s relative, isn’t it … Ha-ha!’
Все по-кругу in a Dostoyevsky novel :).
That’s why it’s important to pay attention to every chapter and maybe even every word — though I do admit I may have been extremely nit-picky and far-fetching in my analysis of this novel VERY often. It’s better than how I first read The Idiot though, then I read it carelessly and inattentively, and when intense scenes came up usually it was all just ‘???’ came up in my head.
I do also have to say just how amazing of a control Dostoyevsky has on the ‘force of fate’ of his novels.
