“I love mankind, he said, "but I find to my amazement that the more I love mankind as a whole, the less I love man in particular.” ― Fyodor Dostoyevsky, The Brothers KaramazovThe Brothers Karamazov (1880) by Fyodor Dostoevsky renders a wonderful plot involving erotic rivalry in a series of triangular love affairs entailing the “wicked and sentimental” Fyodor Pavlovich Karamazov and his three sons−the red-cheeked young Alyosha, the coldly rational Ivan and the spontaneous and sensual Dmitri. The story takes an interesting turn when the mystery around a murder surfaces in the plot. The engrossing events in the lives of the characters expose the Russian life during the golden era of Russian history.“The Brothers Karamazov stands as the culmination of Dostoevsky’s art—his last, longest, richest, and most capacious book.”- The Washington Post
