Yes! It's almost here!!
I always love listening to your book chat. 😍♥️I need to get going on Words of Radiance, too. My 16 yo, 15 yo, and I are trying to read them all before the 5th comes out. My kids are almost finished with the four and I’m only about halfway through Words of Radiance! 😮😂 I’m a bit more in the light fantasy side reader and these have SO many characters etc. Leaning high fantasy!😂

Girl same 🤣🤣 We basically need ktropeathon all year round
For me, The Double is rather more interesting psychologically than philosophically. It strikes me as one part satire and one part horror, with very clever psychological play throughout. (Doubling, of course, plays a major role throughout FMD's works--e.g., Raskolnikov and Svidrigailov in Crime and Punishment, Myshkin and Rogozhin in The Idiot, the two main players in Eternal Husband, etc. We might think of The Double as a first venture into this concept.) I've never read the original version, but I've heard it's awfully tedious. I'm sure you (like me) read the revised version from the 1860s. I actually hold that version in high regard, but part of the method is to play up various verbal tics of both narrator and Golyadkin (e.g., repeating someone's name a bunch of times), so it can be off-putting. (I'm actually getting a similar vibe from The Adolescent. The narrative structure for that later novel requires that the narrator be less-than-eloquent in his portrayal of events. So, FMD winds up displaying his artistry by annoying his readers. 🙂 )

I was wondering why the names were repeated so much! Now I'm curious about the original version. 😆 I am LOVING your audiobook and notes, though. That's what I'm going to listen to once I finish some of my other commitments.

@@ChristyLuisDostoevskyinSpace You're very kind! I'm glad you enjoy it. (It was an early recording, so I wasn't sure how it held up.)
We were going read GA vol 1. It was for August and September. Is that ok?

Yes, after recording this I saw you mentioned it in the Red September vcbat. Thanks, Faith!!
I’ve totally missed seeing you! I’ve been out of town for this month, so if you’ve done some videos, it’s me-not you.

@@ChristyLuisDostoevskyinSpace I’m afraid not. My brother needed assistance to get set up in his home as a new amputee. It was good to help him, but definitely took me out of my life for a while. Nonetheless a worthwhile sacrifice.
The weird thing is Kim Jiha wrote a lot of protest poetry that was important to people back in the day but has since gone on to become a right wing crank.

@ChristyLuisDostoevskyinSpace during the candlelight protests at the end of Banned Book Club, he was on President Park's side! The daughter of the dictator who tortured him, who was trying to enact the same policies and blacklist authors of books like the ones he wrote! Bizarre.
Hi Christy, You have inspired me to read again. I started with the classics, such as Mark Twain, Charles Dickens, John Steinbeck and Robert Heinlein. One of my favorite poets is Khalil Gibran. I would like to email you. How do I contact you? Thanks. 😀
