I like the way you said that nossy Send a noteboard - 19/10/2010 05:31:05 AM
He has more authority in his statements than the other two, but I am not sure he has more understanding (at that point -- and I must stress that).


How very rafo. He'd fit right in.

Oh...Rebekah, I was going to mention that I saw your post only much later because I was very drunk. Tom - 17/10/2010 05:13:41 PM 576 Views
Heh, no worries. Rebekah - 18/10/2010 11:07:00 AM 507 Views

I think you might be overanalyzing the birch tree statement. Tom - 18/10/2010 11:45:12 PM 539 Views

I loved it. Great book. Legolas - 18/10/2010 10:49:27 PM 527 Views
Re: I loved it. Great book. Camilla - 18/10/2010 11:33:42 PM 519 Views
I think it's very relevant. It's also unusually un-Russian. Tom - 18/10/2010 11:54:03 PM 500 Views
Yeah... the Russian nobility at the time seems to have been kind of un-Russian, really. Legolas - 20/10/2010 04:03:34 PM 554 Views
It felt very Russian to me as well Camilla - 20/10/2010 04:12:50 PM 516 Views
There was little of the usual ... histrionics that happen in Russian novels. Rebekah - 22/10/2010 07:02:12 PM 563 Views
Most of the histrionics are Dostoevsky manifestations. Tom - 22/10/2010 10:52:52 PM 605 Views
I really wish I'd bought a properly annotated version. Rebekah - 22/10/2010 07:07:16 PM 580 Views
The answer to that is to just read a great book on Nineteenth Century Russian history. Tom - 22/10/2010 10:55:06 PM 580 Views
Can you recommend one? Rebekah - 22/10/2010 10:55:56 PM 861 Views
"One" is where it starts to get harder. Tom - 23/10/2010 01:45:03 AM 594 Views
Not just Russian, though, there's a lot of mentions of other European history. Legolas - 22/10/2010 11:19:28 PM 525 Views
Nikolai and Pavel - I love them. Rebekah - 22/10/2010 07:14:11 PM 662 Views
Perhaps it's Pavel's "The Chap"-ish nature that makes the novel seem less Russian to me. Tom - 22/10/2010 10:53:56 PM 651 Views
Ah, that's a good point. Rebekah - 22/10/2010 10:54:56 PM 521 Views
