I have just completed reading up to and including section II of "Night (Continued) --> this is how it is in the text; "Night" is seperated into two different sub-sections.
Question:It appears as if Lebyadkin has a lot of powerful and damning information that can be harmful to the "secret society" to which both Nicholas and "Peter" belong. What is this information? Why does Lebyadkin want to go to (St.) Petersburg? What is in (St.) Petersburg that is so important? Is it really true that if Nicholas reveals to society (and the police) that he is indeed married to "Mary" (The Cripple) that the "Captain" will become desitute?
Question: Is there a section on this site (or is there a place somewhere else on the Internet) that has a synospis as well as other detailed information about this novel? I ask because I looked for the "hard copy" of "Sparknotes" for "Demons" in the local bookstore, and they did not carry one for this specific novel (whereas they did have one for "Les Miserables," which I am also currently reading).[/B]
