"Nothing in the world is harder than speaking the truth and nothing easier than flattery." What happens when paramount self-belief leads to self-destruction. Raskolnikov's is a student who believes he has the responsibility of using evil means to bring good to people; thereby committing murders. As Raskolnikov is chased by a relentless investigator, his conscience starts to haunt him, tightening the grip of guilt. Amidst this turmoil, only Sonya, a marginalized sex worker, holds the key to his salvation. Ultimately, Raskolnikov's path leads him to a profound reckoning. Through suffering and self-realization, Raskolnikov discovers the true nature of happiness and the power of accepting and reciprocating love. Crime and Punishment stands as a testament to Dostoevsky's unparalleled ability to explore the depths of the human psyche, the complexities of truth, guilt, and the search for redemption.
