Brilliant work. I read this in college and it blew my mind in a positive way. And I am reading it over again after so many years! Thank you for the audio book version!
Damn this book is really making me confront some ugly truths about myself. To be honest i don’t understand some of the language and points but the general themes heavily resonate with me
Dostoevsky was truly a genius and must have seen some harsh shit in his life in Russia in order to write books and novellas so frightening and with timeless accuracy.
i think dosto really captures the state of mind of a thoroughly urbanized man. only a guy living in a city sees the world the way underground man does. the genius in dosto is that he could grasp that in the 19th century when urbanization was way less intense than today. In the opening note by the author he says men like underground man "must exist in society". today in new york city, for example, you can't throw a rock without hitting the underground man.
It's hard for me to follow but from what I can tell the Underground man is self hating, prideful, extremely self conscious, egotistic, and somewhat masochistic. Am I wrong?
Please introduce yourself, dear Reader. It was an exceptional reading. I have tried reading this work in the book form and everytime gave up, as I couldn't get through. It was so much nicer listening, lighter, readable, and so much more enjoyable.
Mitochondria started out as an invader in a cell, much like the disease process. The cell didn't reject it like a disease, however. The cell accepted the mitochondria and somehow learned to even duplicate it. Now without it, there could be no consciousness. It seems to me that the spontaneous complication of a system that doesn't destroy that system will make ever more complicated systems. I think this is how consciousness came about. I also think the expansion of consciousness should be our fundamental universal human goal.
always a pleasure to find audiobooks on youtube. who's got the money to go out and buy every great work for their collection? I have a decent collection, but i've saved a ton of money by listening to audiobooks on youtube over the years! thanks for sharing this!
Thank you for this. My ex alcoholic bf used to read to me- it was one of the nicer things he did but it was also a hot mess and he had a very nasal voice anyways. You have a nice voice and I’m glad that my ex is no longer reading to me. This was much better.
Notes from the underground is even more relevant, seen why the protesters have taken to the streets and burning cities; society is bored and do not except the crystal castle.
Please make more videos like this. You're so great at it. Not because you're great at it that you should make more audiobook like this. But because I don't know... It would be nice if you make more audiobook. :)
I quite liked another audio book which an older more gruff gentleman read. However, I prefer this as it's more understandable and has the visual aids which I am so appreciative of.
Could someone let me know if this reading is of the complete novel? I ask as I'd started Fyodor's 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘐𝘥𝘪𝘰𝘵 , got halfway through, and the second half had been removed from TH-cam.
This is cool but I wish that the Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky version was read/ on here. Garnette was not able to capture the essence of Russian culture for anything. On another note, this is pretty cool that someone read this through.
Smart but also honest, unhinged and without compromise for his time. It's got to stem from his first world experience, just like the underground must exist in various societies. I think this novella is a reflection of himself and his inner turmoil. It's ironic because even though his Underground Man is too intelligent to start and finish something, Dostoyevsky wrote and finished several books.
Its notes from underground, not “the” underground. underground in this sense being a perspective one arrives at, not a place to which one would go. this leaving out of the definitive I believe(Dostoyevsky being a literary genius)was his intention. Thank you for your video. I will now watch. it.
ALL audiobooks should have scrolling text like this
its a bit out of sync though

Doing gods work
Narrator is excellent because he is 'thinking' about what he is reading as he reads it. This is a rarity amongst narrators of many audio books.
LMAOOO
This reader is more passionate than some others.
I briefly listened to several versions, but this guy definitely had a level of expression I liked the most! Also, he sounded more young/middle-aged than some others, who had stately old-man vibes going.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for the scrolling text to accompany the audio!

Dostoevsky was truly a genius and must have seen some harsh shit in his life in Russia in order to write books and novellas so frightening and with timeless accuracy.
He was mock executed in 1849.
The reader is amazing. Thanks for uploading!
He really is the best voice actor for this short story.
I think he'd be good at "I have no Mouth, and I must scream" as well.
Thank you, much appreciated! So well read and then to have the words scrolling to match, wow!, so few do this, congratulations!
A incredibly awesome narration of a truly epic book! Thank you.
Wow the text is a unimaginably great addition
amazing book and a great author. Thanks for reading and abridging the tones. Makes it way more interesting and easier to keep up with.
Super, glad you enjoyed - and hope that filler dried without any hassle!
Although I am often an "ungrateful biped," I am very grateful for this video. Good voice, well enunciated.

that's not to say all urban dwellers are underground men/women. only that the underground men MUST be urban dwellers
It's hard for me to follow but from what I can tell the Underground man is self hating, prideful, extremely self conscious, egotistic, and somewhat masochistic. Am I wrong?
@@woodd2405 Pretty much
@@internetdinosaur8810 So what are we to do?
That makes no sense at all and you are incorrect.
The narrator reads this book so well,he must have read this book over and over like me.
Please introduce yourself, dear Reader. It was an exceptional reading. I have tried reading this work in the book form and everytime gave up, as I couldn't get through. It was so much nicer listening, lighter, readable, and so much more enjoyable.
The best audiobook on this book.. Thank you hugely
Thank you so much! Had to read this for my class, and found it very hard to get through! The reading made it so much easier!
One of the best pieces that human beings ever produce
What makes you say this?

mitochondria started out as an invader , can you please explain and expand , I am intrigued
Look up endosymbiosis.
@@Gorboduc I just did and I am so intrigued!! Thank you so much!
@@magicknight13 It's crazy!
Much like how the underground man begins as a hater of capitalism and monarchy, but winds up supporting both systems as they turn him in on himself.
What a great idea to allow us to read while we listen to the book!!!
I SOOOOOOO needed this!!! Thank YOU!!!!!
SAME!
Thank you for this!! This is one of the best audiobooks :)
always a pleasure to find audiobooks on youtube. who's got the money to go out and buy every great work for their collection? I have a decent collection, but i've saved a ton of money by listening to audiobooks on youtube over the years! thanks for sharing this!
Ray Quesada agreed. I prefer audio books in general because I absorb them much more ably than I do reading.
Thank you for excellent work. I have really enjoyed this book. The book is the ultimate dissection of human nature or human psychology!
Hope you read lots more with such a narrator it is fab! Maybe some Kafka like The Trial?
Best narrator of all time.
I just started this and love it. It's funny and so insightful!
This is one of my favorite books now from this video, I love returning to it
1:25:40 Part II
Thank you from two years in the future.
you're welcome lol
How would you describe the personality of the Underground man?
Thank you for this. My ex alcoholic bf used to read to me- it was one of the nicer things he did but it was also a hot mess and he had a very nasal voice anyways.
You have a nice voice and I’m glad that my ex is no longer reading to me. This was much better.
What a find! Thank you a lot. I will return often.
Other than enjoying making other people unhappy, this is disturbingly relatable... as in, wtf this guy read my mind 130 years before I was born
i think this a good idea to read and show text at once, because i need listen pronunciatian for my learning english.
It's been four years. How is your English going?
Part 2 Chapter 2- 1:55:17
Definitely world classic audioboks from u for real💯🙌
Ah yes my favourite author; dostoevsk
Notes from Underground is even more relevant as of now.

Please make more videos like this. You're so great at it. Not because you're great at it that you should make more audiobook like this. But because I don't know... It would be nice if you make more audiobook. :)
Thank you I will try this one first, but maybe a little heavy for this time of night.
Thank you for your hard work.
8 page analysis paper on this sucker. Due Thursday. Pray for me.
samuraipanda85 That wouldn't be hard at all.
Davin Lee
Oh sure we say that now.
samuraipanda85 Are you being sarcastical or genuinely saying it was easy? :D
Davin Lee
sarcastic, it was tough
What does one write out for 8 pages?
Why, thank you kindly!
Pure class.

Daaang dude, they left you hanging!
The scrolling text is a great companion. How did you generate it?
Narrator is excellent
I so appreciate it this!!!!

Is this the guy from the invention podcast? McCormick or lamb?
great work, thank you.
Thank you 🙏
I am underground man
we have to read this for our 10th grade book report thing. I'm so happy that i found this
Great narrator!
1:25:41 Part ll
Thank you!
Loved it!!!
Dostoevsky was incredibly smart to write this...
Smart but also honest, unhinged and without compromise for his time. It's got to stem from his first world experience, just like the underground must exist in various societies. I think this novella is a reflection of himself and his inner turmoil. It's ironic because even though his Underground Man is too intelligent to start and finish something, Dostoyevsky wrote and finished several books.

Excellent.
zverkov got that swagger
Haha, I chuckled a bit at the swagger.
Hello, the webpage link doesn't work anymore :/ do you have any other webpage were we can find your audiobooks? I really like your voice and style.

audiobook!
yep...thanks for posting
So, i searched after this book because i heard of it and i didnt knew what it was about, but man, what is with the begining?
LOL. The famous beginning is the genius of Dostoyevsky.
Great voice!
I'm seven minutes in and I both despise this narrator and totally sympathize. And I just turned 40.
how are you now?
this scrolling is brilliant
4:16:26 - Incapable of loving her
Dostoevsk; The elevent Commandment, thou shall be a careerest and subjugate previous to.
Read by Richard Spencer?
Richard Spencer, like Chernyeshevksy, seems like one of those "men of action" this whole novella? is directed towards.
Oh shit, look at me being a bad communist right now
