The Brothers Karamazov

This book is definitely not an easy read. It is deeply philosophical and delves into the human mind challenging the reader to question the narrator. In the first half our protagonist seems like a highly intelligent man with an unique insight into society, but in the second part we learn he is only a bitter, despicable man, using his perceived intelligence as a excuse to treat people horribly. Nevertheless it was brilliantly written and I enjoyed it much more than my other read by this author.
