Publisher's summary

Written by the renowned Fyodor Dostoyevsky, a maker of classics and a literary genius, each of his works offers a powerful and thought-provoking exploration of human nature, philosophy, society, and religion.

Inside this collection of timeless masterpieces, you’ll find three of Dostoyevsky’s most famous works - the gripping, drama-packed The Brothers Karamazov; a powerful account of a naive prince returning to his homeland and finding a world ready to take advantage of him in The Idiot; and finally, a deep and thought-provoking novel about an impoverished student who, upon pushing himself to murder to get by, struggles with the guilt and ramifications as his actions and beliefs haunt him in the 1866 novel Crime and Punishment.

Standing the test of time, each of Dostoyevsky’s renowned works reflect his masterfulness in prose, character, and offer a harsh reflection of 19th century Russian life and the nation’s tremulous past.

Why is he shouting at me?

The narrator has a shouty delivery that sounds better suited to a sportscaster than an audiobook narrator.

ugh the narrator

I just couldn't finish this because of the narrator. The intonation makes it seem like an infomercial.

Classics -- all should read; frustrating audiobook

No need to comment on the Russian master, Dostoyevsky. Three great books; do need to get used to the names and nicknames.

The audio book is truly annoying to use. I wanted to start with Crime and Punishment. Ugh!! Took me twenty-plus minutes of hunting and searching, as it is the second title of the three. C'mon Man! I'd have expected this weak set of features ten years ago.

Poor Narrator Perfomance for good books.

Story is good. The narrator has a really bad performance. Is very hard to listen. He reads in a rush without pauses making the story hard to understand.

An old time favorite author

Fyodor Dostovmyeski is one of my favorite old time authors. I enjoyed very much listening to these books. It was a bit hard to get used to the narrator´s voice at first, but once I did, the listening became more enjoyable. Thanks for the free copy!
