Follow Rodion Raskolnikov, a brilliant but impoverished student who believes he is above moral law. Consumed by a theory that certain individuals can transcend traditional ethics for the greater good, he plans and executes the murder of a pawnbroker. But as guilt and paranoia close in, Raskolnikov spirals into a mental and emotional unraveling, facing his conscience, the justice system, and his own search for redemption.
With a richly drawn cast of characters—including the compassionate Sonia, the morally ambiguous Svidrigailov, and the cunning detective Porfiry—Crime and Punishment explores the depths of human suffering, the consequences of crime, and the possibility of spiritual awakening. Dostoevsky’s masterpiece is a philosophical tour de force that forces readers to grapple with the complexities of guilt, morality, and salvation.
