"Rikos ja rangaistus" by Fyodor Dostoyevsky is a novel first published in 1866. An impoverished former law student in Saint Petersburg plans to murder a pawnbroker, convincing himself that extraordinary men can commit crimes for higher purposes.

His intellectual justifications crumble as he confronts the internal and external consequences of his actions in this exploration of morality and conscience.
