Description
Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoyevsky is a gripping novel about a young man's descent into darkness. After a random act of violence, a former student is pursued by a determined investigator and haunted by his own conscience. As he navigates the treacherous landscape of his own guilt, he finds an unlikely chance at redemption in the form of a young woman. This revised translation by David McDuff brings Dostoyevsky's masterpiece to life with a unique force and naturalism. The edition also includes a new chronology of Dostoyevsky's life and work, providing a deeper understanding of the author's context and influences. With its vivid prose and complex characters, Crime and Punishment is a thought-provoking exploration of morality, justice, and the human condition.
