Crime And Punishment

$

Portrays the main character, Raskolnikov, as a young, arrogant, and indecisive young man who is living in poverty. He decides to kill an elderly pawnbroker and pretends to want to pawn his watch as a way to rehearse the crime.

Description

Raskolnikov, a destitute and desperate former student, wanders through the slums of St Petersburg and commits a random murder without remorse or regret. He imagines himself to be a great man, a Napoleon: acting for a higher purpose beyond conventional moral law. But as he embarks on a dangerous game of cat and mouse with a suspicious police investigator, Raskolnikov is pursued by the growing voice of his conscience and finds the noose of his own guilt tightening around his neck. Only Sonya, a downtrodden sex worker, can offer the chance of redemption
