    Default the idiot

    anyone ever read this book by Fyodor Dostoevsky? The guy that wrote also wrote Crime and Punishment.

    It's a ****ing awesome read. I read Crime and Punishment in High school, and now I'm halfway through "The Idiot" because I saw the character in the movie "The Machinist" staring Christian Bale, reading it.

    no spoilers

    Never read the Idiot, but read most of his other works. My favorite author, with Jorge Luis Borges. Maybe I should take it with me on my next long voyage to America next week.
