Description
A desperate young man murders to test his theory that exceptional people exist above morality, then descends into psychological torment that makes punishment a mercy—Dostoyevsky's exploration of guilt as a force more destructive than any legal system. Crime and Punishment isn't a whodunit; it's a dissection of the criminal mind's inability to escape its own conscience.
