Demons, by Fyodor Dostoevsky

I just finished this seminal and prophetic work of fiction, and I have to say I'm glad we have access to the censored chapterm without it the character of Stavrogin seems to be sabatogong his own life with little reason to do so. I also think that Demons predicted everything from the Russian Revolution to the death toll exacted by this 'new society', about 100 million people. Even the concept of Shigalyovism would prove to be embodied in Stalinist ideals some 60 years out. Let's have an organic discussion about 'Demons', I would like to hear what the good people of /lit/ have to say.
