Livro - The Brothers Karamazov

In 1880 dostoevsky completed the brothers karamazov, the literary effort for which he had been preparing all his life

Compelling, profound, complex, it is the story of a patricide and of the four sons who each had a motive for murder: dmitry, the sensualist, ivan, the intellectual; alyosha, the mystic; and twisted, cunning smerdyakov, the bastard child

Frequently lurid, nightmarish, always brilliant, the novel plunges the reader into a sordid love triangle, a pathological obsession, and a grip

Frequently lurid, nightmarish, always brilliant, the novel plunges the reader into a sordid love triangle, a pathological obsession, and a gripping courtroom drama

But throughout the whole, dostoevsky searhes for the truth-about man, about life, about the existence of god

A terrifying answer to man's eternal questions, this monumental work remains the crowning achievement of perhaps the finest novelist of all time.

As fyodor karamazov awaits an amorous encounter, he is violently done to death

The three sons of the old debauchee are forced to confront their own guilt or complicity

Who will own to parricide? the reckless and passionate dmitri? the corrosive intellectual ivan? surely not the chaste novice monk alyosha? the search reveals the divisions which rack the brothers, yet paradoxically unite them

Around the writhings of this one dysfunctional family dostoevsky weaves a dense network of social, psychological and philosophical relationships

At the same time he shows - from the opening 'scandal' scene in the monastery to a personal appearance by an eccentric devil - that his dramatic skills have lost nothing of their edge

The karamazov brothers, completed a few months before dostoevsky's death in 1881, remains for many the high point of his genius as novelist and chronicler of the modern malaise

It cast a long shadow over d
