I love how everybody makes poor Alyosha their messenger boy. Seriously.
But this book had me confused because everyone was upset and telling Alyosha to go to to someone else and it was just chaos. But whatever. I don't think Dmitri killed Fyodor. It probably WAS Smerdyakov, and he probably hung himself from guilt. How typical.
Right now, I'm just kind of sitting back and looking at this novel through a window, observing. It's hard to figure things out, for me anyway, because I just get this idea that the author wrote this story literally while meaning everything figuratively, or metaphorically. It's as if all the events and characters really represent something deeper. And he must have been insane because personally, I'm too exhausted to try and figure this one out.
