Crime and Punishment (English Edition)

Driven by poverty and an untested philosophy, a young former student commits a crime he believes reason can justify.

What follows is not triumph, but an intense psychological unraveling as Rodion Raskolnikov confronts the inescapable weight of his own conscience. Dostoevsky’s novel probes the fragile boundary between moral abstraction and lived human responsibility.

Constance Garnett’s English translation is widely regarded as both accomplished and enduringly popular among readers. This is the English-language paperback edition of the novel.
