I’m reading the Dostoevsky novel, THE BROTHERS KARAMOV—one paragraph at a time.
Why?
Certainly a reasonable question.
The book was featured on this year’s Prayer 40 Lent Season series on the Hallow app, which is why I remembered it, and the story is a version of the parable of the prodigal son in the Bible—small print, nearly 800 pages.
I wanted to read it, but I couldn’t seem to concentrate, so I didn’t jump right in.
What changed that?
I was listening to a book called GENTLE, by Courtney Carver (mentioned in a previous post) and she gave an account of her daughter tackling a book one sentence at a time.
Well, that got me going again!
Now, as I’ve said, I’m reading one paragraph at a time.
The journey will be a long one, for sure, but that’s okay with me.
The book is a masterpiece, well worth the effort.
