: Yeah, Notes from the Underground sure is long. 120 pages in all.
: As for Goethe --
: "She wouldn't let me wash her hands in my tears"
: Yooung Werther was a wimp. Raskolnikov could breat the craap out of him. Actually Raskolnikov could chop him up into little bitty pieces and unlike the pawnbroker, Raskolnikov wouldn't have to feel guilty about it. And don't get me started on Faust and Mephistopheles.

: : : Yes, I suppose I am one of the stupid college students you are referring to. I did come here looking for help, although I did not expect to write a message, or get an answer. I decided to post after reading all of your ARROGANT remarks. I had hoped to come here and see if anyone was discussing Apollon, and instead I find all of you cool Dostoyevsky fans complaining about others who don't understand him as well. Well, I think Dostoyevsky was a FREAK. ANYONE can write a story about a sicko jerk who s a named Liza, then runs to find her, then blah blah blah. BORING. Goethe kicks a**. Dostoyevsky and Notes From the Underground bite.
: : Oh, and if you want us "stupid college students" to stop coming here looking for help, maybe all of you should start an e-mail campaign to the AOL literature help site asking them to take this URL off their links list. Lord knows it wasn't much help to me.
Oh, wait, I'm sorry. I thought I was speaking to an adult, not someone who claims one character can kick another character's . And Dost can cram an awful lotta dull in 120 pages. As for Faust, Goethe was a genius. Mephistopheles' humor was subtle and biting at the same time. However, sadly for you, this is the last time I will post here. My paper has been turned in, and I recieved my A, without the help of any of the arrogant "scholars" who have posted here. Thank you, and good bye....
