superb
Heinrich Heine
I just finished reading “The Brothers Karamazov,” and I believe it to be one of the greatest - if not THE greatest - novels of all time. Certainly, it has many, many layers to it; and stories within stories.
The onion story was very powerful and I spent a good time thinking about it and even wrote about it in a post on social media many months ago. There are so many lessons to be learned from this one great work. Too bad more universities do not teach the novel. But, I’m sure a lot of these young people would not be able to get through it, because it is a very long book.
