A very very drunk orthodox dude yelling “I challenge you all now, all you atheists!!!” is pretty funny. Interesting how Dostoevsky plays w/ genre: “Crime & Punishment” uses the crime serial (obviously), and this uses the romance novel. I’m surprised at how much the second half is leaning into the yearnings of its characters.

But if you acknowledge that society is inhuman, it means you acknowledge that this girl has been hurt by this society. But if she’s been hurt, why, then, do you yourselves bring her out in front of that same society in your newspapers and demand that it not hurt her?”
