finish crime and punishment

I’ve picked up this book 3 times in the last 2 years and just die at about page 200. Don’t know why. I find it extremely fascinating, but I think it has something to do with translation. I’m always aware of that and it distracts me. That and I usually try to read this at night before bedtime and the language is just so tedious and awkward that I get through about one page before falling fast asleep! Arg! I will finish this now because I hear it’s fantastic, esp the ending!
