Book Discussion: The Brothers Karamazov
Friday, April 12, 2024 | 12:00PM - 1:00PM EDT
When a debauched landowner, Fyodor Karamazov, is murdered, the lives of his sons are changed irrevocably: Mitya, the sensualist, whose bitter rivalry with his father immediately places him under suspicion for parricide; Ivan, the atheist intellectual, whose mental tortures drive him to breakdown; Alyosha, a Christian of unerring belief and compassion; and Smerdyakov, the sinister half-brother. As the ensuing investigation and trial reveal the identity of the murderer, Dostoyevsky’s dark masterpiece examines the lines separating innocence from corruption, good from evil, in one of the supreme novels of world literature.
