Crime and Punishment

Více o knize

The story delves into the psychological turmoil and ethical conflicts faced by Rodion Raskolnikov, an impoverished ex-student in St. Petersburg. He plans and carries out the murder of a pawnbroker, convinced that her death will allow him to use her money for good and validate his theory about exceptional individuals having the right to commit crimes for a greater cause. Throughout the narrative, Raskolnikov grapples with his justifications, often likening himself to Napoleon, as he confronts the moral implications of his actions.
