Is not liking Dostoevsky a meme on here? I keep seeing completely unjustified hatred of him here.
If there's any newfriends here, we wanna let em know --- there's not a unanimous hatred of Dostoyevsky. Some people recognize the rightful place he holds in the canon.

It's mostly a meme inspired by Nabokov's disdain for him. I wouldn't say I actively dislike him, but his novels can get tedious on account of how slow they can be and the heavy-handed moralizing he incorporated into all of his work.
