The Grand Inquisitor.

Am I retarded or is this a Tarkovsky joke?
>>8258132
You're retarded. Who do you think Tarkovsky was adapting?
Brothers Karamazov really was his best.
My two other favorites are White Nights and Notes from the Underground. He captures our autism in a magnificent way.
1. Crime and Punishment
2. Memoirs from the House of the Dead
3. The Idiot
This is the patrician choice.
>>8258140
I didn't get White Nights.
basically the guy is a dreamer dissatisfied with real life, and when his dream becomes reality he cannot deal with it, or something.

>>8258149
No, he's passive and expects life to give him chances and gives up after one try.
Dostoevsky hated betas. This is an anti beta cautionary tale.
>>8258150
t. cuck
>>8258161
Yup. And Dostoevsky is calling you a faggot and a cunt in that story, more or less.
>>8258153
How does it end again? It's been a while since I read it.
I swear that he doesn't give up after one try.
>>8258165
The protagonist gets cucked, gives up on life and spends the rest of his days in a meaningless existence with an unimportant job, no friends and the only human in his life being his servant babuska.
>>8258138
God damn it you made me look it up.
