Deepanshu Anand –
Notes from Underground is a bit dense, but The Double is a fascinating exploration of identity. Good translation.
Navya Dham –
Dostoevsky at his finest. A challenging but rewarding read. The underground man’s bitterness is both repulsive and strangely relatable.
Priya Bharti –
I struggled with the underground man’s negativity, but I still appreciated Dostoevsky’s genius. The Double was more engaging for me.
Prashant Tripathi –
Challenging and rewarding. Dostoevsky delves deep into the human condition. Be prepared to confront your own darkness.

A classic for a reason. Explores the complexities of human nature with unflinching honesty. Be prepared for some uncomfortable truths.

Dostoevsky’s writing style takes some getting used to, but his insights are profound. Not a light read but very powerful.
Keshav R Gupta –
While I appreciate the literary significance, I didn’t enjoy the book as much as I thought I would. It felt a bit depressing.
Vansh Maheshwari –
I found The Double to be the stronger of the two stories. Notes from Underground was a little too nihilistic for my taste.
Somveer –
A truly unique and disturbing book. The underground man’s perspective is unsettling, but it makes you think.

Dark, cynical, and thought-provoking. Not an easy read, but definitely worth the effort. The psychological insights are incredible.
