This is just one of those random things... I was reading Letters of Note and came to the letter by Fyodor Dostoevsky and that reminded me that I still haven't read The Brothers Karamazov (yeah, one day I'll get around to it...) and then my brain piped up with "didn't I read somewhere that it was one of Benedict's favourite books?" and I also thought I remembered reading that he would like to be involved if anyone ever adapted it for the screen... So then I googled his name and the book title to see if I could confirm these thoughts... Nope, nothing... but I did come across some bizarre "interviews" which made me laugh. If you want to check them out, here are a few links:

There are actually dozens of them on the same site, written to some sort of satirical formula/style that the author seems to have developed.

But anyway... Does anyone know if I'm right about Benedict listing The Brothers Karamazov as one of his favourite books?
