Crime and Punishment
Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoyevsky is a celebrated work of Russian literature. Equally lauded as his finest masterpiece and one of the greatest works of fiction ever written, it is a kind of psychological analysis that explores the many moral dilemmas facing Raskolnikov, an impoverished student who commits murder and theft in order to test his theory that he is an exceptional human being. The novel deals with themes of morality, crime, and redemption. It was first published in twelve monthly installments during 1866 in the literary journal The Russian Messenger. A later version was published in book form in 1867.
