March 10, 200818 yr comment_104483 that one's coming up on my to read list. I read "Crime And Punishment" and "Notes From Thee Underground" back in high school, but never cracked "Karamazov". It's really beautifully written. Different style than I'm used to. Supposed to be his best work. Unfortunately I don't have much spare time so the reading is not really going fast. Report
March 10, 200818 yr comment_104484 i read Karamazov, Notes From The Underground, and Crime and Punishment for a Dostoevski class I took at Northwestern. Needless to say, reading the three books for class in 8 weeks wasn't quite what I'd call fun. They're very well written, and I'll visit them later on in my life, but for now, I don't even want to touch them. Report

They're very well written, and I'll visit them later on in my life, but for now, I don't even want to touch them. Somehow I think forced reading in school has quite the opposite effect of what is intended. Luckily we had to read mostly Norwegian temporary literature in high school (no big loss), so I have been able to enjoy Dostoevsky. In addition to the above I will also recommend Demons (also known as the Possessed). Report

March 12, 200818 yr comment_104960 The other day I found a retardedly long book on contemporary art that I just started to read. It's a compilation of criticisms, artist's tracts on art along with a bunch of extremely obscure papers like Jackson Pollack's Guggenheim grant application. I'm only a few pieces in but I'm enjoying it tremendously. Report

March 22, 200818 yr comment_107760 That title is false if you're doing neural network programming Well Flannery O'Connor is the great grandfather of neural network programming so I think she knows what she's talking about - Or she's being ironic and you're not cool enough to get it. Report
