The Brothers Karamazov

"This sprawling philosophical novel, grappling with good and evil, faith, and free will, fits Cormac McCarthy's interest in humanity's darkest impulses and moral quandaries. It lands in the same neighborhood as his own explorations of violence and redemption."

"Its deep exploration of free will, morality, and the nature of good and evil fits Lex Fridman's interest in the philosophical implications of AI and human existence. This classic aligns with his podcast's frequent discussions on consciousness and ethics."
