Nineteen books into the year so far and it’s time for one of those books that you have to read because people that read books tell you that you have to read this book! My next download onto my Kindle (other ebook readers are available) is going to be Crime and Punishment

Pain and suffering are always inevitable for a large intelligence and a deep heart. The really great men must, I think, have great sadness on earth.
-- Fyodor Dostoevsky (Crime and Punishment)

On #ThisDayInHistory in 1849, #novelist #FyodorDostoevsky was sentenced to death for radical anti-government activities in tsarist #Russia. A cart arrived just in time with a commutation to hard labour in #Siberia. The experience with near-execution later came up in 'The Idiot'.

🔴 🇷🇺 📖 **Fyodor fever: how Dostoevsky became a social media sensation**

Imogen West-Knights

_“Since about December of last year, White Nights has been all over BookTok and its Instagram parallel, Bookstagram. Searching for the 1848 tale on these platforms will result in page after page of reviews, quotes, and moody shots of the book next to cups of coffee.”_

Fyodor fever: how Dostoevsky became a social media sensation

White Nights, the author’s 1848 novella, sounds an unlikely candidate to go viral, but the story of lovelorn loneliness is now a favourite among TikTok and Instagram users
