Really enjoyed this one. Pechorin is such a loveable scumbag. Great theme throughout on free will vs fate. Excellent sociological and psychological commentary. I just love those 19th century Russian novels.
Next up is either Nabokov's Transparent Things or Tolstoy's War and Peace. I also have Murakami's Wind/Pinball hardcover to get through.
