Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoevsky

Crime and Punishment is Fyodor Dostoevsky’s psychological and philosophical masterpiece, first published in 1866. Set in the gritty streets of St. Petersburg, the novel follows Rodion Raskolnikov, a destitute former student who commits a brutal murder under the belief that he is morally justified. As guilt consumes him, Raskolnikov spirals into torment, confronting questions of justice, redemption, and the nature of evil.
Through vivid characters and haunting introspection, Dostoevsky explores the human psyche, moral ambiguity, and the possibility of spiritual rebirth. A cornerstone of Russian literature, Crime and Punishment remains a timeless reflection on conscience and consequence.
