dolcebe...Tony: What do you mean? I love this book!<br /><br />dolcebellezza: I really love Soseki's I Am a Cat. It's so funny in such a quiet way. <br /><br />I also generally love Dostoevsky and I can only agree with L'Engle on The Brothers Karamazov. It's perfection.<br /><br />As for a Russian literature challenge...I could be up for that. But maybe in a few months.<br /><br />Michelle: I think I'm the minority on this one; I don't think you should let my review affect your desire to read Botchan at all. :)Bookphiliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05155882653615842141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4972764383963459152.post-69930242917397036482010-01-17T18:17:05.403-05:002010-01-17T18:17:05.403-05:00Ah!

So true! Sometimes our world seems upside down in what it appreciates...I've never read Soseki, and apparently I won't start with Botchan. Thanks for the heads up.<br /><br />In other news, I love Dostoevsky! Love. Him. I'm reading The Brothers Karamazov this winter, as it was Madeleine L'Engle's favorite work of fiction ever. Perhaps we should host a Russian Literature Challenge sometime.<br /><br />Anyway, I loved how you ended with "the love fest that has been the JLC3"; it has indeed, with everyone's thoughtful participation.
