I thought the punishment in question was being forced to read it. But
hey, that's just me. I originally put it down to a bad translation,
maybe it was a good translation...

Well, being a native Russian speaker I was forced to read some of
Dostoyevsky at age of 15-16 - last years in school. Notably of course
the "Crime and Punishment"... Somehow I had mental repulsion of it...
So Paul, I suppose we were through somewhat similar experience,
although ironically the involved languages and authors were quite
different.
