Oplysninger fra den engelske Almen Viden Redigér teksten, så den bliver dansk. Notes from the Underground
I am a sick man... I am a spiteful man. The Double
It was a little past eight o'clock in the morning. White Nights
It was a wonderfull night, such a night as is only possible when we are young dear reader. The Meek One
...Oh, while she is still here, it is still all right; I go up and look at her every minute; but tomorrow they will take her away-and how shall I be left alone? The Dream of a Ridiculous Man
I am a ridiculous man. | |

However I enjoyed the second part very much. Many great points and intriguing perspectives.
Overall Notes from Underground is a great way to get inside the mind of a very psychotic individual. ( )
