Story
The Brothers Karamazov tells the stirring tale of four brothers: the pleasure-seeking, impatient Dmitri; the brilliant and morose Ivan; the gentle, loving, and honest Alyosha; and the illegitimate Smerdyakov: shy, silent, and cruel. The four unite in the murder of one of literature's most despicable characters - their father. This was Dostoevsky's final and best work.

Story
The murder of brutal landowner Fyodor Karamazov changes the lives of his sons irrevocably: Mitya, the sensualist, whose bitter rivalry with his father immediately places him under suspicion for parricide; Ivan, the intellectual, driven to breakdown; the spiritual Alyosha, who tries to heal the family's rifts; and the shadowy figure of their bastard half-brother, Smerdyakov. Dostoyevsky's dark masterwork evokes a world where the lines between innocence and corruption, good and evil, blur and everyone's faith in humanity is tested.

Story
Fyodor Dostoyevsky is a titanic figure among the world's great authors, and The Brothers Karamazov is often hailed as his finest novel. A masterpiece on many levels, it transcends the boundaries of a gripping murder mystery to become a moving account of the battle between love and hate, faith and despair, compassion and cruelty, good and evil.

Story
Continuing where Thus Spoke Zarathustra left off, Nietzsche's controversial work Beyond Good and Evil is one of the most influential philosophical texts of the 19th century and one of the most controversial works of ideology ever written. Attacking the notion of morality as nothing more than institutionalised weakness, Nietzsche criticises past philosophers for their unquestioning acceptance of moral precepts. Nietzsche tried to formulate what he called "the philosophy of the future".

Story
"Call me Ishmael." Thus starts the greatest American novel. Melville said himself that he wanted to write "a mighty book about a mighty theme" and so he did. It is a story of one man's obsessive revenge-journey against the white whale, Moby-Dick, who injured him in an earlier meeting. Woven into the story of the last journey of The Pequod is a mesh of philosophy, rumination, religion, history, and a mass of information about whaling through the ages.

Awe and exhilaration—along with heartbreak and mordant wit—abound in Lolita, which tells the story of the aging Humbert Humbert's obsession for the nymphet Dolores Haze. Lolita is also the story of a hypercivilized European colliding with the cheerful barbarism of postwar America.

A fantastic and harrowing tale of a troubled man
Great narration! Very expressive and very different so you can tell who each character is. Boy do the Russians write depressing books. A roller coaster of guilt and folly.

Tearful and Political
What can be said abt crime and punishment that hasn't already been said? Its a masterful look into the human mind and how it functions. Dostoevsky manages to put you into the mind of a murderer who belives he himself is a Napoleon Bonapart allowed to flaunt moral taboos. Despite this, you find yourself rooting for him.
For me it is hard to not see a political undertone to this book. To quote dostoevsky, "You can judge the degree of a civilization by seeing its prisons". We must srsly rethink our prisons, retributive justice does not work. It leads to high recidivism rates and makes crime a cyclical cycle. If the Scandanavians can implement such a system of rehibilitation with amazing results why can't we? "America is a different country, apples and oranges". Well, last time I checked humans live in Scandanavia not aliens.
Finally, importantly, Anthony Heald knocks this out of the park. One of the best narrators I have ever had the pleasure of having for an audio book. He never faults and he always keeps you engaged.

Dark and maddening
The story was dark and filled with fleeting thoughts and psychosis as the main character spirals into insanity propelled by systemic social inequalities and poverty. It was raw and intriguing and not romanticized in the least. Good performance by the narrator he really made the story come to life.

A Great Insight
I thoroughly enjoyed this. I was hesitant at first but the speaker did an amazing job at capturing the emotion from the characters
Now having finished it I can see why it has stood the test of time

A Classic with good reason
This book was amazing... great story, well developed characters, etc. The story itself is well fleshed out and even though it belongs in a world I would barely recognize it does not feel alien to me.
The story narrative is a bit simplistic as old books tend to be, no jump in times, no dual perspectives, etc... but this is not a criticism, just a comment for those looking at a bit of an insight
Anthony Heald (the narrator of this audiobook) is a TREASURE... what an amazing performance!... I will probably end up listening to any book he narrates regardless of genre... he is THAT GOOD!

The performance of this book brought already great writing to life! The distinction between characters, emotions, and intonation was spot on and made this so entertaining! The story itself was great, really enjoyed it!

Great classic
It’s considered a classic for a reason. The dialogue and the ideas treated are really amazing. It takes quite some time to pickup but the buildup is worth it
