?The insulted and Injured? by Fyodor Dostoyevsky is a very fine novel, which I was not aware of until recently. The 2011 translation by Boris Jakim is excellent. Dostoyevsky develops his characters very well and the reader suffers and is uplifted along with them. His characters become alive ? especially an orphaned girl Nellie, the narrator Vanya, Natasha torn between two suitors, and the enigmatic Prince Valkovsky. I think this is the third best novel written by Dostoyevsky, following only ?The Brothers Karamazov? and ?Crime and Punishment?. (I am sure some scholars will disagree with my view but read it and see.) I highly recommend it.
