Gabriel Woolf
Fydor Karamazov, a mean and disreputable landowner, has three sons, Dmitry, a profligate army officer; Ivan, a writer with revolutionary ideas; and Alexey, a religious novice. A drama of patricide and fraternal jealousy unfolds, involving the questions of anarchism and atheism, and giving a portrait of Russian society in the turbulent 1870s.
Fyodor Mikhaylovich Dostoyevsky (1821 - 1881) was a Russian fiction writer, essayist, and philosopher whose works have been acclaimed all over the world by thinkers as diverse as Sigmund Freud and Albert Einstein.

i love this reading of it. in fact, this reader has become one of my favorites. if you cannot excuse the occassional page turning, swallowing, and, yes, air in the breathing passage, don´t buy this book. because it does contain these little human imperfections. but, for me, i loved it. i felt like someone human was reading to me. but, it must be said, i am not one who likes the new modern slick productions you sometimes get when the reader is far more performing than reading.
when this book came to an end i just started again at the beginning and listened to it again. even after that it took me several days to find something else that could compare as an experience.
for this price, anyone can afford to give it a try, and i am really grateful to audibles for having some compaasion on my budget.
great book

Yet lauding Dostoevsky's work is redundant at this point. I write this review for sensitive listeners who are looking for the best performance of the text. Gabriel Woolf brings life to the text like few other audio editions. I was impressed at his ability to make Fyodor Karamazov sound as terrible as his character is presented in the book. I'm sure it is not an easy task to formulate the perfect vocal rendition of each character (since the author is famous for creating incredibly complex and fascinating characters), so I applaud Woolf for his efforts.
If you are looking for an audiobook that will suck you up for the next few weeks of your life, this is the perfect book for you. The narrator taps into the emotional subtexts of each character's life, and it truly engages the reader.
