Notes from the Underground is Fyodor Dostoevsky's 1864 masterpiece following the ranting, slightly unhinged memoir of an isolated, anonymous civil servant. A dramatic monologue in which the narrator leaves himself open to ridicule and reveals more of his weaknesses than he intends, this influential short novel lays the ground work for the political, religious, moral and political ideas that are explored in Dostoevsky's later works.… (lisätietoja)
Re-read this in 2022 for the first time in maybe 20 years? Not quite what I remembered it to be, but perhaps that is just my age making me less willing to be in reverent awe of classics like this. It's a dreary and joyless walk through foundational 19th century philosophical and moral ideas about human nature and society, ideas that would become very influential, told by a particularly unlikeable narrator. Worth refreshing my memory of those ideas, but I'm glad it's not a long book. ( )
Obra-prima da literatura mundial, esta pequena novela traz, em embrião, vários temas da fase madura de Dostoiévski. Seu protagonista, um funcionário que vive no subsolo de um edifício em São Petersburgo, expõe a sua visão de mundo num discurso explosivo, labiríntico, vertido impecavelmente para o português por Boris Schnaiderman. "Tradução primorosa." (Luciano Trigo, O Globo)
You know those times in your life when you retreat from the world? Stay home **way** too much, read deep & thoughtful books, inspect every dark corner of your soul, stay up for days on end, eat bad food, get a bit twitchy, question the motives and intelligence of everyone - except yourself, when you're not too busy hating yourself.
Minä olen sairas ihminen... Olen paha ihminen. Epämiellyttävä ihminen.

"I wished to stifle with external sensations all that was ceaselessly boiling up inside me."
"...because for a woman it is in love that all resurrection, all salvation from ruin of whatever sort, and all regenerations consists, nor can it reveal itself in anything but this."
"Leave us to ourselves without a book and we'll immediately get confused, lost -- we won't know what to join, what to hold to, what to love and what to hate, what to respect and what to despise."
At home, I merely used to read. Reading stirred, delighted, and tormented me.
It is impossible for an intelligent man seriously to become anything, and only fools become something.
To be overly conscious is a sickness, a real, thorough sickness.
But anyhow: what can a decent man speak about with the most pleasure? Answer: Himself. So then I, too, will speak about myself.
I’ve always considered myself more intelligent than everyone around me, and, would you believe, have even felt slightly ashamed of it. At least I’ve somehow averted my eyes all my life, and never could look people straight in the face.
Curses on that school, on those terrible years of penal servitude! In short, I parted ways with my fellows as soon as I was set free.
With love one can live even without happiness. Life is good even in sorrow, it’s good to live in the world, no matter how.
Man only likes counting his grief, he doesn’t count his happiness. But if he were to count properly, he’d see that there’s enough of both lots for him.
For a woman it is in love that all resurrection, all salvation from ruin of whatever sort, and all regeneration consists, nor can it reveal itself in anything else but this.
"For if a desire should come into conflict with reason we shall then reason and not desire, because it will be impossible retaining our reason to be SENSELESS in our desires, and in that way knowingly act against reason and desire to injure ourselves"
We have come almost to looking upon real life as an effort, almost as hard work, and we are all privately agreed that it is better in books.

Tämän paradoksaalisen ihmisen "kirjoitukset" eivät muuten lopu tähän. Hän ei kestänyt vaan jatkoi. Mutta meistäkin tuntuu, että tähän voi lopettaa.
