i gave up on reading it after hearing her story because I got bored. I stumbled across this video and now I deeply regret not finishing the book. My heart hurts :, )

I dont think he felt authentic love for her, just limerence. He projected all his desires on her, hoping she would save him. Manic pixie dream girl is what came to my mind while reading this. Beautiful writing nevertheless.

is the cure to man loneliness playing dark souls till death?

great video! though as a russian native speaker i want to add smth: nastenka's name is actually pronounced nasten'ka (with a soft "n") and also when pronouncing it you need to make an accent on the first "a" so it sounds somewhat like nAsten'ka. anyway i enjoyed the narration so keep going!
