Description

About The Book: Rodion Romanovitch Raskolnikov, a brilliant yet conflicted student, resides in a rented room within a dilapidated apartment in St. Petersburg. Possessing remarkable intelligence, pride, and physical attractiveness, Raskolnikov formulates a peculiar theory suggesting that intellectually superior individuals are exempt from conventional laws. Entertaining this notion, he contemplates the notion of committing a crime to test his hypothesis. Ultimately, he carries out the murder of the cynical and morally dubious pawnbroker, Alyona Ivanovna, along with her sister Lizaveta. This heinous act forces Raskolnikov to confront and grapple with his own moral quandaries. Fyodor Dostoevsky's penetrating psychological exploration delves into Raskolnikov's character, transcending the mere criminal deed to encompass his perilous journey from torment to potential redemption.
