Constance Garrett was a horrible translator. It's a shame to ruin such a great novel by reading such an awful translation from Garrett. To enjoy this book, please please please (!!) read the text as translated by another source. The Pevear / Volokhonsky Translation is much closer to the original. ... (continue)

Although I must admit I had a hard time reading this book (such lengthy monologues and dialogues!), it is overall an impressive novel, a provocative classic full of raw power. If you like novels that dwell on their protagonist's inner turmoil, then read Crime and Punishment. You can hardly ... (continue)

Simply: this book is truly a masterpiece. It is a sincere and realistic representation of inner-struggle, as by the erratic and unpredictable temperament of the central character Raskolnikov--not only of the conflict between guilt and pride (resulting from the murders he commits in the name of unadulterated reason), but also of something deeper: above all, what is the balance between faith and reason in our lives (and the dangers of having none)? When do we follow our reason, and when our heart? Specifically: can murder ever be "justified"? <br />These questions are central especially today: an extraordinary accomplishment by Dostoyevsky in creating an absolutely, almost painfully, real character, who represents the culmination of the past and future of human's formidable amibitions.
