Was he as great as his reputation indicates? Or am I setting myself up for failure as I did when I jumped into For Whom the Bell Tolls thinking it would be an amazing piece of literature and only finding it to be bland for the most part. What I'm asking is: will Dostoevsky let me down?

I liked for Whom the Bell Tolls.
Jump into Dostoevsky, I thought he was a fantastic author. You don't know until you try right?

Dislike him. A cheap sensationalist, clumsy and vulgar. A prophet, a claptrap journalist and a slapdash comedian. Some of his scenes are extraordinarily amusing. Nobody takes his reactionary journalism seriously.

Kind of like a russian Upton Sinclaire, then

If Dostoyevsky lets you down then you are a filthy Westernitzer that should get out of the way of the galloping troika before you are trampled until you lay as still as a hare in a samovar!
