Graciouswarriorprincess I agree…wtf? This book is something else! 4mo
TheBookHippie I‘m pretending I‘m sitting at the bar listening to a drunk tell a very long story….. 4mo
Cuilin I do wonder why a chapter like this is added into a novel, as it never seems to move the plot forward. Is to highlight the suffering as that‘s a big theme of the book? Who knows? It‘s all rather fascinating though, if a little 🍌 👖. 4mo

Ruthiella So I listened to a pretty erudite book tuber about this book and he said the point of the novel is the age old question in Christian theology of why do humans suffer if there is a benevolent god looking out for us. So the plot is maybe all subservient to this idea and therefore occasionally whackadoodle. Also, FD had a son named Aleksey who died as a child, which was a huge blow. Generally FD‘s life was one of hardship, illness and grief. 4mo
Ruthiella Here‘s the link- though it is a long video. https://youtu.be/zpqES5V6iAg?si=Mt9Bwh8JgLfDneMZ 4mo

mcctrish Was Aloysha not supposed to deliver something to this second-captain? Money? Or did I miss something in the last chapter‘s yelling ?Biggest take away from this chapter? The insult “you‘re a little pile, and you smell vile” absolutely SAVAGE 4mo

dabbe Smerdyakov hangs cats. WTF? To me, he's a psychopath in the making, and I don't trust him at all. #slyasafox 5mo
5feet.of.fury I still can‘t get past the Russian naming conventions. What else could be expected of “the son of the stinking one” 5mo
Bookwormjillk @dabbe I agree he‘s psychotic, but maybe I shouldn‘t have read this chapter right after I finished 5mo
BarkingMadRead @5feet.of.fury I feel like he‘s set up to fail 5mo
currentlyreadinginCO As a side note, fish cakes with fish soup not my ideal situation 5mo
