Crime and Punishment (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9788199009967)

Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoevsky is a groundbreaking psychological novel first published in 1866. Set in 19th-century St. Petersburg, it explores the inner turmoil of a young man who believes he can justify murder in the name of a higher moral purpose. It is considered one of the greatest novels ever written, deeply probing the nature of guilt, morality, and redemption.Crime and Punishment follows Rodion Raskolnikov, an impoverished ex-student who murders a pawnbroker in an attempt to prove a philosophical theory: that certain extraordinary individuals are above the law. But instead of liberation, the crime leads to a psychological unraveling. Haunted by guilt and pursued by a shrewd detective, Raskolnikov is forced to confront his conscience and the true nature of justice.
