El crimen y el castigo by Fyodor Dostoyevsky

"El crimen y el castigo" 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 certain crimes are justifiable when committed by "extraordinary" men for higher purposes. But once the deed is done, he finds himself consumed by confusion, paranoia, and guilt. His theoretical justifications crumble as he confronts the internal and external consequences of his actions, plunging into profound mental anguish and moral turmoil.
