RE: ๐๐ Dostoyevsky's THE IDIOT Bookclub - Book I, Chapter 3,4,5.๐๐
Hi guys! @anna89 @sroka87 @taliakerch @singa @hanen @marinauzelac @alexandraioana26 @alignment @arthur.grafo @soufianechakrouf :-)
As promised here is the second article for the Bookclub, have you had time to catch up?
Good stuff - I missed the first part, but caught this one!
:-) Cool! How did you like those chapters? Any idea where the story is all going?
I enjoyed it - its rather slow burning at the moment, setting up the character of the Prince nicely, revealing details about his lack of education and skills, but hinting that "Zeal overcomes all".
I like how the Prince manages to fall on his feet, landing a job from the General by virtue of his beautiful handwriting. It would suggest that his story os not all hard luck and that he will find some breaks along the way!
Slow burning is the world. I feel that the author keeps dropping some clues and hints about how the story will unfold... It seems that the Idiot may not be the main protagonist after all, but a kind of observer who will be engulfed into the problems of the Epanchins...
Yeah! He has just arrived in StPetersburg and has already gotten himself a job, a lodging and 25 rubles ^^ It's like a "rags to riches" plot
Unfortunately didn't have time to catch up. Hopefully Tuesday I will be on track!
No worries :)
Hi @sroka87! Would you like to give a go at the next article, about the next two chapters (6 and7) ?
Sorry @herveisson , this week is crazy busy for me - i'll struggle to find time to read the chapters, let alone write anything !
Sorry. :(
No worries, @sroka87! I think we have someone :)
