If you don't like being pointed out by Mr Dostoevsky as an asshole (and I can identify with some of the situations that he points out) - don't read this book. You'll end up loathing him for 1) this reason, and 2) for the mind-twisting philosophies. It's like a metaphoric mirror being held up to the dark side of your character.

easy to read, potentially difficult to decipher the figurative language, or the underlying reasons for certain actions taken in the book. id suggest consulting your resources if at times you feel lost (i know i did), it's definitely worth it.
