{Fr. Roman Braga} ~ on the Brother's Karamazov

I have read the book,

Exploring the Inner Universe: Joy -- the Mystery of Life

and one of my favourite parts of Fr. Roman's story

is when his confessor, Fr. Nicodemus,

tells him, after confession,

to go and read The Brothers Karamazov

and analyze the character of Alyosha.

Fr. Roman says that 

"this was a turning point in his life."

(page 26).
