On an exceptionally hot evening early in July a young man came out of the garret in which he lodged in S. Place and walked slowly, as though in hesitation, towards K. bridge. He had successfully avoided meeting his landlady on the staircase. His garret was under the roof of a high, five-storied house and was more like a cupboard than a room. The landlady who provided him with garret, dinners, and attendance, lived on the floor below, and every time he went out he was obliged to pass her kitchen, the door of which invariably stood open. And each time he passed, the young man had a sick, frightened feeling, which made him scowl and feel ashamed. He was hopelessly in debt to his landlady, and was afraid of meeting her.

Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoyevsky (/?d?st??j?fski, ?d?s-/; Russian: קէ ڧ?ۧݧӧڧ ?ӧܧڧ; IPA: [?f??d?r m???xajl?v??t? d?st??j?fsk??j]; 11 November 1821 C 9 February 1881), sometimes transliterated Dostoevsky, was a Russian novelist, short story writer, essayist, journalist and philosopher. Dostoyevsky's literary works explore human psychology in the troubled political, social, and spiritual atmosphere of 19th-century Russia. Many of his works are marked by a preoccupation with Christianity, explored through the prism of the individual confronted with life's hardships and beauty.

He began writing in his 20s, and his first novel, Poor Folk, was published in 1846 when he was 25. His major works include Crime and Punishment (1866), The Idiot (1869), Demons (1872) and The Brothers Karamazov (1880). His output consists of 11 novels, three novellas, 17 short novels and numerous other works. Many literary critics rate him as one of the greatest psychologists in world literature. His 1864 novella Notes from Underground is considered to be one of the first works of existentialist literature.

Born in Moscow in 1821, Dostoyevsky was introduced to literature at an early age through fairy tales and legends, and through books by Russian and foreign authors. His mother died in 1837, when he was 15, and around the same time he left school to enter the Nikolayev Military Engineering Institute. After graduating, he worked as an engineer and briefly enjoyed a lavish lifestyle, translating books to earn extra money. In the mid-1840s he wrote his first novel, Poor Folk, which gained him entry into St. Petersburg's literary circles.

In the following years, Dostoyevsky worked as a journalist, publishing and editing several magazines of his own and later A Writer's Diary, a collection of his writings. He began to travel around western Europe and developed a gambling addiction, which led to financial hardship. For a time, he had to beg for money, but he eventually became one of the most widely read and highly regarded Russian writers. His books have been translated into more than 170 languages. Dostoyevsky influenced a multitude of writers and philosophers, from Anton Chekhov and Ernest Hemingway to Friedrich Nietzsche and Jean-Paul Sartre.

    This book tends to find the people that need it. There are many, many ways to interpret this story. Personally, I learned that man has an inner need to pay for the crimes he's committed .No matter what you do, you cannot escape yourself. And the guilt doesn't chase you, it waits for you to come and take it on when you are ready.

    On the Kindle, the title and cover is Crime and Punishment but the contents of the book are The Brothers Karamazov. Was very confusing until I figured out what was going on.

    A very interesting book about 19th Century Russian society. It is interesting when the murderer is the 'hero'. A lot of alcohol in the story, and the Russian names can be really distracting. If the reader perseveres, he/she will experienced a classic masterpiece of a story, one like no other.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A master piece
    Reviewed in Mexico on March 26, 2018
    Verified Purchase
    Im still a new to reading novels, so my opinion may change in the future, but I have say that for one of my first novels to read I feel like Ive read a master piece!
    How the characters in the novel are written, makes them feel real and connectable to.
    The description of the characters, their personalities and the places where events happened is very likable as well.
    The way I can hear the characters thoughts made me sometime feel like I was the person living and thinking that way, as if I were them! onetime I even felt almost going crazy as one of the characters was going crazy!
    It is in the psychological genre and it does a great job at it, but I would advise to stay away from it if youre not fond of that genre.
    As a last note, as a non English native speaker the novel was a little hard to read(I needed to use the translator a couple of times).
    TLDR;
    I felt like I read a master piece.
    It was enjoyable, makes you feel like you are the character him/her self, the way the characters and their thoughts are presented is fantastic and makes them connectable to and makes the reader able to understand them.
    I liked it a lot, I definitely recommend it to anyone into the psychological genre.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Breathtaking
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 21, 2014

    Crime and Punishment is set in Russia in the 1800's. It is written from the perspective of the protagonist Raskolnikov; a young student. Despite its reputation as being hard going, I found it easy to read and impossible to put down.

    Due to financial hardship and circumstance Raskolnikov commits murder. Russia was economically and politically unstable at the time of writing and one of the greatest arguments in favor of socialism is that, if people were equal would crime be eliminated? Would the reason for acting criminally no longer exist? The novel spreads this message, without focusing politics as a major theme. Drawing upon the writings of Marx and Engels, Russia became Communist in 1917 under Lenin, succeeded by Stalin after Lenin's death in 1925.

    As the title suggests the crime - one man murdering another and; punishment - the guilt, paranoia, mental deterioration and then incarceration are the major themes, the content of the entire novel. Other plot-lines such as romance take a significant back seat. Love does indeed suffer as a consequence of the crime, part of the punishment I guess.

    A tale of love, justice, psychology and suffering; this is a wonderful read, and despite what Willy Mason says, you should read Dostoevsky at your age.
