I read Brothers Karamazov for a college literature class and not only was it an amazing class, but it was also my introduction to Dostoevsky. Bros. Karamazov was my gateway into Dostoevsky and now I have a section of my shelf just for him and other Russian literature authors 💕

@ Isabella Pisanko 💕 i was happy to see this comment because I came here to say that Dostoyevsky’s Brothers Karamasov was the first book I read as an adult that hooked me on classic literature. It was so wild and deep, profound and funny. Spellbinding. I want to read all Dostoyevsky now, but have been been quite enraptured reading Emily Bronte, Mikel Bulgakov (The Master and Margarita) and now Charlotte Bronte. I am curious your next most favorite Dostoyevsky read. 🌼

@jezebel amber great list of books you've been reading. If you loved Brothers Karamazov, the initial ideas that Dostoevsky was exploring, which ended in Brothers K, were actually started in Crime and Punishment. So you might like that one. Alternatively, The Idiot is also a great read.😀👍

As much as I love Pale Fire, I wouldn't recommend it to a beginner. I say this from experience. I got into literature just a few years ago and it was quite difficult to get through it since I'd only read a handful of books prior to it. It was rewarding in the end but I can't help but feel I hadn't read enough prior to it to adapt to its VERY meta style. I'll be sure to check out the other books in this video though. 😃

Honestly, starting with the Brothers Karamazov isn’t a terrible idea! It’s surprisingly easy to read, kinda funny at times, and the concepts discussed in it are easier to understand than say, Crime and Punishment or Notes from Underground because they are presented in characters that the reader can relate to more (you’re more likely to be a pretentious, hysterical student than a murderer. Hopefully) HOWEVER, I didn’t read for weeks after finishing it because everything paled in comparison. Also!! McDuff translation is unmatched, P&V is slightly overhyped for TBK but still quality, and Constance Garett is odious

I say! There are some marvellous books on this list. Perfume, in particular, is exquisite. I must say, though, that I was surprised at seeing The Waves and Pale Fire on a list for "beginners." Woolf, herself, said that she worried The Waves was "fundamentally unreadable," which I thought was a rather amusing, though mighty, honest, appraisal. Nabokov's Pale Fire might be a humdinger of a book, but it is a jolly unusual read. What with the to-ing and fro-ing between narrative and poem; the eclecticism of components, etc. For someone dipping their toe into the Classics for the first time, it might feel akin to having one's first ever driving lesson in a lorry. 😀 Most classics are really good fun, but I would worry that if someone made their first foray into them with Woolf or Nabokov, they could be as alarmed as if they'd gone to their first slumber part only to be awoken in the morning with a bomb under the bed😀 Having said that, i really loved the video and have scuttled off to find 'Bonjour.' I enjoyed your natural presentation in this video. You have a charming manner.

Obviously not Dakota lol, but I recommend reading more books in whatever genre you're trying to write in. That way you can compare your writing style/characters with more books in that genre! General writing styles vary per genre. For example, a lot of romance books are a little simplistic and have more straightforward characters. If you're trying to write romance, you probably don't need a bunch of flowery language, etc. Hope this helps!

The greatest advice I can give you is to read a few pages each day regularly and not think about the pages. It can be difficult to start with because we humans have this strange habit of always wanting to get to the next thing without really enjoying what we have right before us. By reading consistently, a few pages each day, you can achieve a surprising amount. Better though, is that the quality and enjoyment of your reading is improved. As for some shorter works by Dostoevsky, I can recommend The Gambler which is very good, or The House of the Dead, if you want something more gritty. Hope this helps.😀👍

So, after I'd told her that I thought Russian lit was scary, she gave me her copy of White Nights by Dostoevsky, and told me to just give it a go. I started it and didn't really love it, but picked it up again and got so engrossed in it and finished it so quickly. It was easy to read and fast paced and I genuinely cared about the story, so I recommend that one.

I’ve been reading Pale Fire recently and I’d say it all depends on how much you want to be influenced by Kinbote. I personally went through the poem first and really digested it, gathering my own opinions on shade and the theme. THEN I went through to kinbote’s commentary, flipping back to the poem to read parts when I needed it. I’m sure others will have read it differently, and I think that’s part of the experience itself. It’s ultimately your decision to make lol
