I've actually already read it--I'm rereading it because it's the subject of my junior paper. And yes, I would recommend perservering through it. It's one of my all-time favorite books. Dost's understanding of human nature (as far as I can tell, being a 20-year-old pseudo-intellectual) is just...amazing.
From what I know about you, Rhythman, I think you probably would disagree with a number of his points, but at the very least I think it will give you food for thought.

Crime & Punishment by Fyodor Dostoevsky???
I started to read this classic a couple of years ago (just for pleasure) and put the work down after chapter four. I don't think a fictitional character has ever before (or after) had this kind of effect on me, but Raskolnikov with all of his ambivalence and paralyzing indetermination irked me so extremely that I could not continue the read.
If you would be so kind, tell me (after you've read it) should I have persevered or (like Tolstoy's War & Peace, which I did finish) was it truly an exercise in tolerance to finish.
