About this ebook

Fyodor Dostoevsky's "Crime and Punishment" is a gripping psychological masterpiece that delves deep into the tormented mind of its protagonist, Raskolnikov, and explores themes of morality, guilt, and redemption.

Set in 19th-century St. Petersburg, Russia, the novel follows the impoverished and intellectually gifted former student, Raskolnikov, who becomes consumed by a radical idea. He believes that by committing a morally justifiable murder of a pawnbroker, he can alleviate his financial woes and prove his superiority over conventional morality. However, the act triggers a relentless inner turmoil.

As the story unfolds, we witness Raskolnikov's descent into paranoia and madness, juxtaposed with the unwavering determination of the shrewd detective Porfiry to solve the crime. The novel masterfully explores the ethical consequences of Raskolnikov's actions and the impact on those around him, including the virtuous Sonia.

Dostoevsky's writing is deeply introspective, drawing readers into the conflicted psyche of his characters. He examines the human condition with profound insight, raising questions about the nature of good and evil, the limits of human suffering, and the possibility of redemption.

"Crime and Punishment" is a literary triumph that continues to captivate readers with its exploration of the darkest corners of the human soul. If you seek a novel that challenges your moral convictions and provides a riveting journey through the complexities of the human psyche, this classic work is an essential read.




Fyodor Dostoevsky, one of Russia's greatest novelists, was born on November 11, 1821, in Moscow. Raised in a family of physicians, he initially studied to follow in their footsteps but soon turned to literature.
