Description: ~ Experience the Captivating World of Fyodor Dostoevsky's Crime and Punishment ~ Crime And Punishment Translated from the Russian of Fyodor Dostoevsky by Constance Garnett Introduction by Clifton Fadiman Illustrations by Benjamin Kopman HardcoverBook First published in the literary journal The Russian Messenger in twelve monthly installments during 1866. The novel is often cited as one of the supreme achievements in literature. Book focuses on the mental anguish and moral dilemmas of Rodion Raskolnikov, a haughty and penniless student flitting about the slums of St. Petersburg, who brutally murders an unscrupulous pawnbroker to help society. Although he gets away with the crime, he still experiences punishment: feelings of guilt, paranoia, isolation, horror, and self-doubt. After a protracted moral struggle, Raskolnikov eventually begs God and humanity for forgiveness, confesses to the police, and serves a prison sentence in Siberia.
