Intimidated by bigger books and longer reads? Are you interested in the classics and want to talk about them? Join us for a chapter by chapter discussion on Dostoevsky's The Brothers Karamazov.
"The Brothers Karamasov is a murder mystery, a courtroom drama, and an exploration of erotic rivalry in a series of triangular love affairs involving the “wicked and sentimental” Fyodor Pavlovich Karamazov and his three sons―the impulsive and sensual Dmitri; the coldly rational Ivan; and the healthy, red-cheeked young novice Alyosha. Through the gripping events of their story, Dostoevsky portrays the whole of Russian life, is social and spiritual striving, in what was both the golden age and a tragic turning point in Russian culture."
In this discussion, we'll be talking about books five through nine in the Brothers Karamazov. Registration required. Limited to 8 participants. Pick up your free copy of the text at the Adult Services Desk.
