(highly recommend them), and saw many shared things with Dostoevsky's works. Yes, they both lived in Russia in the mid-late nineteenth century, referenced Orthodox Christian ideology (What was Anton Chekhov's opinion of Dostoevsky?
Jusin various contexts, and to varying degrees of trust and belief), and were astute observers of human nature; so, some overlap should be expected. However, some themes/characters were suspicious. Chekhov, coming after Dostoevsky, seemed to satirize or criticize him.
I'm trying to piece this together and determine if I'm being too presumptuous, and instead should take a break and go outside. If I knew Chekhov's opinion of Dostoevsky (and his works), then perhaps my suspicions could be cross validated. TIA
