    You think Dostoevsky is modern? I guess you're applying some academic definition?

    Anyway, I have just read Michael Chabon's "The Yiddish Policemen's Union".
    Jeez, can that guy write! Fizzy, sassy, spectacular.
    Funny too.

    Modern is a literary period he falls into (mid-19th century).
