I knew immediately I would fall in love with this book and needless to say, I have. His words speak in such a profound way that it speaks to you at your core. I found myself annotating so many things in almost each chapter.
The view on spiritually and religion, I can't even begin to talk about, such beautiful quotes about god and life, it made me so inspired.
At the same time, this book was dark, talking about deep structures/conflicts of our society. 
This did not feel like a classic at all! looking forward to reading every single one this brilliant man has written. 🖤

I think this is one of those books that I will never stop recommending. Made me cry and weep like a little girl lost in the woods. 

Fyodor Dostoevsky might be a favorite author. 🖤🌹
