If you’re on the fence about tackling the 800+ page Russian novel called The Brothers Karamazov, let me give you a little push. Read it.
At its core, this book addresses several philosophical and psychological ideas that will target everything you thought you understood about your own life. It’s impossible to read it without holding a mirror up to your own deeds and beliefs. That is why it's considered a classic and one of the greatest works of literature today. A good book should do more than entertain you - it should challenge your views, however stubborn they may be.
In this week’s podcast, I review my thoughts on The Brothers Karamazov without dabbling in spoilers. Don’t worry, I want you to experience the book for yourself. However, I cover five ways in which Dostoyevsky helps you learn more about yourself and the world around you. All I can say is this, “Hold on! It’s going to be an interesting ride.”
