Dude yes, it really is. This term I had a huge paper due and I used the Grand Inquisitor as a framing for analyzing the rise of Putin. If you go and watch Awakening From the Meaning Crisis episode 16 on youtube by Vervaeke there are so many things that click in to place and make sense. I didn't grow up Christian, my parents are agnostic, which I think was a real missed opportunity. Once I listened to that lecture with the Grand Inq. short story my mind fucking exploded. There are many, many layers and they echo throughout modernity. Straight nut.
I want to read the entirety of TBK but I have other books on my to-do list. Have you liked the rest of it?
