After a long hiatus from reading that coincides with Mr. Grey’s birth, I’ve picked up a book off my shelf which has sat page unturned for approximately 11 years. Dostoevsky’s Crime and Punishment. I read the first chapter last night and my initial observations are that it is magnificently written. I’m reading the Norton Critical edition published in 1975.

Unfortunately, the long day caught up with me fast and I fell asleep, book on chest around 8:30 last night. Hope to make some time to read the next chapter tonight.
