Dostoyevsksy can surely get me back to reading for extended periods of time. And amongst all the books, The Idiot has had a special place, so time for a rare occurrence. The re-read. :)

Much of this is still vivid in memory, but then it's only been 6 years and this book made a strong impression on me when i first read it. The fact that I recalled Ippolit conversation nearly word for word was a pleasant surprise.

Picked a different translation for the re-read. I have read nearly all of Dostoevsky, don't recall picking up Pevear and Volokhonsky P&V for any of big ones. So let's see if they are indeed *better*.

Apart from reading the same 5 pages of Fichte nearly every day, everything's good. Doesn't help that he repeats himself a lot. But then, This should set me back on track.
Saw your updates earlier this month, Glad you are back to reading again :)
