Zločin i kazna

Fjodor Mihajlovič Dostojevski

A masterpiece of Russian realism and psychological novel, Crime and Punishment (1866), masterfully translated by Isa Velikanović, is a profound story of guilt, redemption, and the search for meaning in a world full of suffering, where every soul carries i

In the bleak streets of 1860s St. Petersburg, Rodion Raskolnikov, a poor former law student, is sinking into despair due to poverty and hopelessness. Obsessed with the idea that an "exceptional man" is above ordinary morality, he hatches a terrible plan: to kill Alena Ivanovna, a greedy loan shark, and use her money to improve his life and help others.

He carries out the crime in cold blood, but accidentally kills her sister Lizaveta as well. From that moment on, Raskolnikov's soul becomes a battlefield. Remorse and paranoia tear him apart as he tries to cover his tracks. In a city full of misery, he meets the Marmeladovs, a family destroyed by their father's alcoholism.

Sonya, a young daughter forced into prostitution, becomes a beacon in his darkness. Inspector Porfiry Petrovich, shrewd and persistent, plays on Raskolnikov's fears, driving him to the brink of madness. As the net tightens around him, Raskolnikov struggles with the question: was his crime justified?

Sonya's faith and her sacrifice for her family touch him, leading him to repentance. In the end, he confesses to his crime and faces eight years in Siberia. There, with Sonya, he begins a journey of spiritual rebirth.
