Probably the best book ever. Written by Fyodor Dostoevsky, the story concerns three brothers, Dmitri, Ivan, and Alexei. One is a soldier, one is an intellectual, and the other is a monk. Their father is murdered, and Dmitri is charged with the crime. I won't spoil the ending by saying if he did it. Not that it matters, since the real themes of the book are morality, fidelity, love, hatred, apathy, and just about any topic that has ever concerned humanity. A work without peer.
