  1. Aishwarya

    Loved the characters and the exploration of morality. Some parts were confusing, but overall a great read.

  2. Dhaval Kukreti

    An amazing classic! The translation by McDuff is excellent. The prince’s kindness is inspiring, a bit dragged in middle.

  3. Drishti Singh

    Dostoevsky’s genius shines through. This book explores the complexities of human nature with precision. I loved it!

  4. Aditya

    Not my favorite Dostoevsky, but still a good book. Myshkin is a unique character. Bit depressing though.

  5. Anuj Ghai

    Dostoevsky’s writing is incredible. The plot is complex and the characters are flawed, yet relatable. Highly recommend!

  6. Manik Lakhwani

    Enjoyed the book, but I felt it was a bit too long. The characters were well-developed and interesting.

  7. Vibhu Vibhor Tiwari

    A thought-provoking novel about innocence in a corrupt world. Some scenes were hard to read, very emotional.

  8. Kanishka

    A powerful story about good versus evil. Nastasya Filippovna is captivating. A bit slow-paced, but worth the effort.

  9. Abhijeet Bera

    Dostoevsky at his best! Myshkin’s innocence shines, but the plot felt a bit convoluted at times. Still a must-read.

  10. Ayush Saini

    Myshkin is a fascinating character. Dostoevsky delves deep into the human psyche. The ending was somewhat unsatisfying though.

  11. Samiksha

    Good character development, but I wasn’t fully invested in the story. A bit too philosophical and meandering.
