Moral introspection meets psychological thriller.

If you’re captivated by the complexities of the human psyche, "Crime and Punishment" is a profound journey you’ll want to embark on. Dostoevsky masterfully delves into the darkest corners of the mind, mapping out a landscape where philosophy clashes with primal instincts. This is much more than a grim tale of crime; it's an exploration of redemption and conscience with layers that promise to haunt you long after turning the last page.

Description

Jessie Coulson’s translation provides the text for the Third Edition of this acclaimed Norton Critical Edition. New footnotes have been added, based on discoveries by the leading Soviet Dostoevsky scholar, Sergei Belov. "Backgrounds and Sources", highly praised in the Second Edition, remains unaltered. Included are a detailed map of nineteenth-century St. Petersburg, selections from Dostoevsky’s notebooks and letters, and a crucial passage from an early draft of his novel. Noteworthy among the several new "Essays in Criticism" are a little-known but important passage by Leo Tolstoy on Raskolnikov; an essay by Sergei Belov; observations by the Russian literary theoretician and scholar Mikhail Bakhtin; and an essay by the Nobel laureate Czeslaw Milosz. A Chronology of Dostoevsky’s Life and a Selected Bibliography are also included.
