Description :

Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoevsky is a masterpiece of psychological fiction that explores the depths of morality, guilt, and redemption. Set in 19th-century St. Petersburg, the novel follows Rodion Raskolnikov, a destitute former student who commits a shocking crime driven by desperation and a twisted philosophical rationale.

As Raskolnikov struggles with the psychological torment of his actions, he encounters a host of vivid characters, including the compassionate and resilient Sonia, the sharp and persistent detective Porfiry, and the morally ambiguous Svidrigailov. Through these interactions, the novel delves into profound questions about human nature, justice, and the possibility of redemption.

Dostoevsky’s gripping narrative and penetrating exploration of the human psyche make Crime and Punishment a timeless classic, regarded as one of the greatest works of literature. It is a powerful meditation on the consequences of choice and the search for meaning in the face of suffering.
