I am just starting Petersburg and already love it for being very funny and political and strange. I also like the footnotes and am going back and forth a bit. The best bit in the first chapter footnotes is when they describe the word "Hessitic" as "a Gogolian flaunting of non-existent knowledge." Ahahahah!
I feel like I should go back and read Fathers and Sons again but maybe afterwards or on a 2nd reading!
