Crime and Punishment focuses on the mental anguish and moral dilemmas of Rodion Romanovich Raskolnikov, an impoverished St. Petersburg student who formulates and executes a plan to kill a hated, unscrupulous pawnbroker for her money, thereby solving his financial problems and at the same time, he argues, ridding the world of evil. Crime and Punishment is considered by many as the first of Dostoevsky's cycle of great novels, which would culminate with his last completed work, The Brothers Karamazov, shortly before his death.

Fyodor Dostoevsky

Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoevsky was a towering figure in Russian literature and one of the greatest psychological novelists in world literature. After early work like Poor Folk, he was arrested in 1849 for political activism, sentenced to death, and reprieved moments before execution—then spent four years in Siberian exile. His experiences shaped major novels including Crime and Punishment, The Idiot, Demons, and The Brothers Karamazov. Dostoevsky’s works probe free will, guilt, faith, and moral conflict, pioneering psychological realism and influencing existentialism, modern literature, and philosophical thought.
