Crime And Punishment / Prestuplenie I Nakazanie by Fyodor Dostoevsky
A destitute former student murders an unscrupulous pawnbroker, convinced his theory about extraordinary individuals justifies the act, but the crime plunges him into mounting guilt, feverish paranoia, and moral disintegration as a shrewd investigator closes in; through encounters with a suffering, compassionate woman and the pressures of conscience and law, he is forced to reckon with the spiritual as well as legal consequences of his deed, transforming the act of punishment into a path toward possible moral redemption.
