One has a very optimistic view of the world, the other, Raskolnikov from Crime and Punishment, despises it and justifies violent crime with this mentality. Wonderful works, both of them. Unlike many, I read TBK first and decided to read Dostoevsky&amp;#x27;s other works and fell in love. Notes from the underground will always hold a special spot in my heart because of how much I can relate to the protagonist unfortunately.&lt;p&gt;Can anyone recommend other similar works of literature? I haven&amp;#x27;t read many books like this but I found Siddhartha, Narcissus and Goldmund and Steppenwolfe by Herman Hesse to be on the same lines (deal with existentialism).</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>“The Idiot” Savant: On Fyodor Dostoevsky’s Idiot</title><url>https://www.newcriterion.com/issues/2018/5/the-idiot-savant-9753</url></story>

Prince Myshkin is as naive as they come. I would think someone in his shoes wouldn&amp;#x27;t mind being walked all over like he is in the book.&lt;p&gt;&amp;quot;Do not give what is holy to the dogs; nor cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you in pieces.&amp;quot;</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>“The Idiot” Savant: On Fyodor Dostoevsky’s Idiot</title><url>https://www.newcriterion.com/issues/2018/5/the-idiot-savant-9753</url></story>
