About this listen

At its heart, The Insulted and the Injured is a story of human tragedy and suffering, but it is also a love story. Narrated by a fictitious young author, Vanya, this book tells the story of Natasha and her lover, Alyosha, who also happens to be the son of the cruel Prince Valkovsky.

Unfortunately, Prince Valkovsky has plans for Alyosha's future and those plans don't include Natasha. The prince sets out to destroy his son's relationship so that he can see him safely married to the wealthy heiress, Katya. Will love endure or will the evil prince get his way?

The Insulted and Injured was released in 1861 and is Fyodor Dostoevsky's first major novel after his Siberian exile. Influenced by authors such as Charles Dickens and Edgar Allan Poe, Dostoevsky would become one of the most widely read Russian authors of the 19th century.

Fun

very entertaining! the love triangle is disappointing, but it's a very theatrical/dramatic book with one dimensional characters which actually makes the book more fun to read and listen to.
Essentially it's gossip, who doesn't like that?

Sad and true to life

This is a heart-wrenching piece out of the lives of several people with no real closure or happy ending or anything like that, but the experience is Meaningful and poignant.

such a tedious plot

Nothing special, a long tedious plot, with no surprises
A not so well developed romance
It seems to have taken several years for the author to write a masterpiece like "the Idiot"

The Narrator is terrible but the story is great.

The intonation of the narrator’s voice is an a front to senses and the dynamics of the music which is this excellent work. However, it wasn’t so bad I couldn’t stomach it. The book is really very good and has an exceptional ending that is very powerful. A bit melodramatic at times, but overall a great work. Freddy D. Does it again!
