For those who've read I'm curious: which of his books do you consider his greatest work, and why? Was it the psychological depth, the philosophical ideas, the moral dilemmas, the character development, or the emotional impact that stayed with you?

I'd love to know which novel affected you the most and what you took away from it. Did it change the way you think about human nature, suffering, faith, guilt, free will, or the meaning of life? If you could recommend just one Dostoevsky novel to someone who has never read him before, which one would it be, and what makes it the perfect introduction to his work?
