Crime and Punishment (Vintage Classic Russians Series) by Fyodor Dostoevsky

Punishment currently available... An especially

faithful re-creation...with a coiled-spring kinetic energy... Don't miss it' Washington Post

Consumed by the idea of his own special destiny, immured in poverty and

deprivation, Rashkolnikov is drawn to commit a terrible crime. In the

aftermath, Rashkolnikov is dogged by madness, guilt and a calculating

detective, and a feverish cat-and-mouse game unfolds. The only hope for

redemption, if Rashkolnikov can but recognise it, lies in the virtuous and

faithful Sonya.
