I was debating starting 'Don Quixote' but decided instead on Dostoyevsky's 'The House of the Dead'.

Good Choice! Some excellent characters in this book. Although it gave me nightmares

.

didn't know you could get it on it's own though, the only copy of it I could find was coupled with 'Poor Folk'.

Going to try and read a few plays for a bit so I thought I'd start with Ibsen's 'A Doll's House'.

have you read Steppingwolf by Hess
his best in my opinion.

AJG · 07-09-2008 05:55PM

I have but for me I'd rank it third after 'Narcissus and Goldmund' and 'Journey to the East'. I haven't read a bad one by him though and I've probably read seven or eight of his. He's definitely one of the best writers of the twentieth century.

I guessed there might not be much left to read besides 'The Karamazov Brothers' so I did a little digging. What I came up with were a number of shorter works that turn up in some of the more obscure/harder to find anthologies of Dostoevsky's work. So before I start reading the former I'm going to read these works first. First up is 'The Honest Thief'.
