Constantine Gregory
Prince Lyov Nikolayevitch Myshkin is one of the great characters in Russian literature. Is he a saint or just naïve? Is he an idealist or, as many in General Epanchin's society feel, an "idiot"? Certainly his return to St. Petersburg after years in a Swiss clinic has a dramatic effect on the beautiful Aglaia, youngest of the Epanchin daughters, and on the charismatic but willful Nastasya Filippovna. As he paints a vivid picture of Russian society, Dostoyevsky shows how principles conflict with emotions - with tragic results.

Exactly like LOST, the Idiot had such a build up of unanswered questions one hoped the conclusion would answer them. Both failed on that mark. Maybe I am supposed to say, oh how brilliant of Dostoyevsky to come up with an unsatisfying ending. I can’t. As a hayseed country boy, I was left wondering if the author was in a hurry to complete the work and just threw together a quick semi-satisfactory.
Sorry Dostoyevsky. I know you are dead and all, and I am supposed to respect you as a literary genius, but something is lost in the translation of your work in language and after 130 years.
I still rate the story fairly high. I just think it could have been better.
Ending a little disappointing
