Notes From Underground by Fyodor Dostoyevsky (Book Review)

Hello everyone,

Welcome to my new book review. Okay, I've NEARLY finished War & Peace but this weekend I wanted to read something different so tried my hand at Dostoyevsky. Notes From Underground was a short but surprising read that packed a punch. Certainly, I started crying at the end of of it. A frustrating, annoying and awful man - yet I would say someone with a strong sense of self awareness - but also not having any - (you need to read the book to realise is that he doesn't learn - or does he?) and someone who needs a good shake to stir them out of their constant thinking, assuming, and believing they are better than others.

A brilliant read and certainly, I would say one of the best books I have read in my life - and in 2023.
