Very Worthwhile
An very informative compliment to my recent reading of The Brothers Karamazov. Provides Biography, major life events and a comparison to his contemporaries. Reinforced by readings from his writings. Dostoyevsky's abandoned zealous writing of the human condition gained clarity.

Providing context for Dostoevsky
I was interested in Dostoevsky’s works through my friend’s recommendation. She also told me that some understanding of his life and the time he lived in would help with understanding his novels. This 90 minute review was great for providing that background.
