The Brothers Karamazov
If everything is permitted, can we truly be free in our lives?
📝ONGO's Reflection
When I first opened this immense novel, I witnessed the soul of all humanity within the passions of a single family. Dostoevsky hurls the weightiest of themes—God, morality, freedom—through the mouths of his most worldly and tempestuous characters. Ivan's anguish—"if there is no God, everything is permitted"—cuts sharply into our inner lives today. Are we truly beings capable of bearing the weight of boundless freedom? This book gives no answer. Instead, it merely poses questions that will shake you to the very bottom of your soul.

"지옥이란 무엇인가? 그것은 더 이상 사랑할 수 없다는 고통이다."
