Fyodor Dostoevsky s classic of Russian literature in its first and still, arguably, best translation by Constance Garnett, now in a beautiful gift edition for the Union Square & Co. Signature Clothbound Editions line. Set in the slums of nineteenth-century Saint Petersburg, Russia, Crime and Punishment follows Raskolnikov, and impoverished ex-student, who rationalizes committing criminal acts for the greater good. However, a momentous decision triggers a tense cat-and-mouse game that sees him pursued by authorities, while wrestling with the weight of his own moral anguish. Originally published in 1866, Dostoevsky s masterwork (The New Yorker) is the quintessential psychological crime thriller and widely considered one of the greatest novels of all time.
Fyodor Dostoevsky (1821-1881) was a novelist, short story writer, and journalist. Widely regarded as one of the greatest novelists ever, his most acclaimed novels-Crime and Punishment, The Brothers Karamazov, and The Idiot-have had an immeasurable impact on world literature, Existentialism, and Freudian psychology.
