II'm currently rereading one of my favorite books, Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoevsky. My main goal is to discuss it with you and to broaden my perspective. This readalong ends on the 21st of February, so feel free to join! You don’t have to do much. Just tune in every week to share your thoughts in the comments and ask questions if you have any.

A faint, strange, indistinct noise. There was something in the air which froze us. We were afraid. […] It seemed to me that the door from the drawing-room into the dining-room was not in its usual place. […] We thought that some one was behind the door. I raised my hand to close it, but could not. Startled, I pulled harder, when suddenly it yielded, and we saw a little old woman, her hands hanging down and her eyes closed, standing motionless, as though caught in the corner of the wall.[…] She neither spoke nor moved, but stood with closed eyes. […] One of us gave her a push. She fell forward. She fell like a block of wood, like a dead thing.[…] “Put the candle under her chin.” I did so. She half-opened one eye,—an empty socket, dull, frightful-looking, which could not see. […] “Ah! at last! Now answer, you old sorcerer! Who are you?” […] She opened both eyes slowly, looked first at one, then at another of us, and suddenly leaning forward, she blew out the candle with an icy breath. At the same time I felt three sharp teeth clutch my hand in the darkness.” Music Six Musical Moments, D. 780 - III.
