Reviving Russian

I used to have a casual command of Russian as it really was exciting to discover the Russians in my youth. Recently I have read another novel by the superb Dostoyevski, called " Poor Folk" in English. Discovering the Russian novelists again in my age is pretty much refreshing. 

However I want to read them in their language so I might taste again the freshness which I had enjoyed in reading " Le Petit Prince" in French.  As matter of fact, I am seriously considering to wrap that pure slavic language up again.
