The Possessed: Adventures with Russian Books and the People Who Read Them

This book MIGHT make someone happy. I thought I'd love it just because of the title. The cover makes it look very inviting, too.
But after getting through the first chapter, I just couldn't stand it anymore.
I feel terrible saying this, but the author writes like an intellectual snob...
I hope somebody else will review it and write about how they felt when reading this. I hope someone else likes it. But I just hated it:(
