How the HELL can you read that? I tried reading it and it's fucking impossible. It's like free-writing stream of consciousness with esoteric Russian history which isn't explained.
I didn't read the entire thing but it's depressing and makes one lose faith in humanity..
Well, you're smarter than me. I tried but it was such a slog. There was no structure. I'd love to read an edited and highly abridged version.
There was no structure because he was writing day to day, recording things he experienced or was told about while he sat in prison. Kind of like a diary or journal. A historical record.
That's understandable. There is an audio book online of it. Idk if that would help.
