"I am a sick man... I am a spiteful man." A good hook, but I had a tough time finishing Notes. The narrator really shows that yes, he is in fact a sick and spiteful man. Not one I'd want to pick up again.

I got pulled into Dostoyevsky through Brothers K, which led me to Notes eventually.

Do you know what translation of Notes you read? I think I read P&V, and if I read it again I'd want to try something else

I've read Garnett and P&V and personally much prefer the Garnett translation!
