Publisher Description
The Brothers Karamazov is the final novel by the Russian author Fyodor Dostoevsky and is generally considered the culmination of his life's work. Published in November 1880, Dostoevsky spent nearly two years writing the novel set in 19th-century Russia.
Fydor Karamazov, a mean and disreputable landowner, has three sons, Dmitry, a profligate army officer; Ivan, a writer with revolutionary ideas; and Alexey, a religious novice. A drama of patricide and fraternal jealousy unfolds, involving the questions of anarchism and atheism, and giving a portrait of Russian society in the turbulent 1870s.
Fyodor Mikhaylovich Dostoyevsky (1821 - 1881) was a Russian fiction writer, essayist, and philosopher whose works have been acclaimed all over the world by thinkers as diverse as Sigmund Freud and Albert Einstein.

Customer Reviews
a fine book
first of all this is one of the top books in my library, if you're a little impatient and bored with books this one might not be for you, but having it read to you makes it a lot easier to follow the plot, which is by the way an incredible work or literature, and for those of you who have some experience with audiobooks you know it can be unbearable when you dont like the reader, Gabriel wolf does a fine job reading it, overall, I've been recommending this book to everyone I can get onto the topic of literature, a fine peice
The reader is just too dreadful
I couldn’t even finish the first chapter
