I am not a Dostoyevsky fan; hopefully others here can give you more diverse suggestions.

I read C&P on a friend's strong recommendation when I was at university, and loved it so much I read practically all the other novels in quick succession! I think C&P and The Brothers Karamazov still stand out as my favourites, though The House of the Dead, The Gambler and Notes from Underground are fantastic too.

I was thinking of reading Dostoyevsky. The only work of Dostoyevsky I've read before is The brothers Karamazov. And I would like some recommendations.
Thanks in advance
