You should read "Death and the Dervish" by Mesa Selimovic. It's TBK on steroids and with much more beautiful language.

Although unlike Dostoevsky who was consistently brilliant Selimovic wrote one really fantastic book and the fizzeled out.

Resurrexi is a rather big fan of Russian economic and social policy. Modern and in relatively modern history. :mellow:

You're right. I now officially acknowledge my brain damage, and ask for prayer.
