Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoevsky is a psychological novel that explores the mind of Raskolnikov, a destitute ex-student in St. Petersburg who commits a brutal murder. He believes he is justified in killing a pawnbroker for the greater good, but guilt and paranoia begin to consume him. The novel delves deep into themes of morality, redemption, and the nature of justice. As Raskolnikov grapples with his conscience, he encounters characters who challenge his beliefs and reflect different aspects of human suffering. His inner turmoil ultimately leads him toward confession and spiritual rebirth. It is a profound exploration of crime, punishment, and the human soul.
