Yes, but emo sophomores cant read. (It took me several tries over a decade to get through Crime and Punishment. It took one sitting, without eating, to do The Idiot. All a matter of maturity.)
I am perhaps the only American alive who has read both “Crime and Punishment” and “Les Miserables” in German. I was living in Deutschland at the time and couldn’t afford expensive English-language imported books.
