personally, i think it suffers from unnecessary length; poor editing (dostoevsky wrote it in serialized segments, often changing the character names and ignoring conflicting histories and events from previous chapters); and fundamental flaws in psychology, human interaction, and philosophy. the story is also unfinished; dostoevsky had plans to write a just as beefy sequel but subsequently died shortly after this book was published.
