Review of 'Great short works of Fyodor Dostoevsky' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
The Double was interesting, but more like Kafka than like what I think of as Dostoyevskian. White Nights was kind of melodramatic. The Eternal Husband and A Gentle Creature were good, solid, Dostoyevski psychological stories. A Ridiculous Man seemed like something Tolstoi would write. Notes from Underground, The Gambler, and A Disgraceful Affair I skipped since I'd read them before (respectively: good but depressing, a featherweight comedy, and a very good story).
