paperback. Condition: New. Product DescriptionThis classic Russian novel has it all: murder, suspense, passion, struggle, and redemption.Originally published in 1866, Crime and Punishment is a psychological thriller that deals with issues of morality, conscience, and redemption. Widely considered to be one of the greatest novels written in any language, this novel explores the life of Rodin Raskolnikov, a young Russian man who robs and murders a pawnbroker to save himself from a life of poverty. As a consequence, he must deal with the oppressive mental anguish of being a criminal while attempting to maintain relationships with his friends and family.About the AuthorFyodor Dostoyevsky is considered one of the greatest novelists of all time. Born in Moscow in 1821, he began adulthood by resigning a commission as a military engineer to embark on a writing career. The praise he earned for his first novel, Poor Folk, immediately vaulted him to literary stardom. His political activity led to imprisonment, a mock execution, and exile to a Siberian prison camp, all of which shaped his later novels. Since his death in 1881, he has been best remembered for his novels Crime and Punishment and The Brothers Karamazov.Constance Garnett (1861-1946) was an English translator of nineteenth-century Russian literature.

paperback. Condition: New. New Ed. Product DescriptionThe most autobiographical novel by the author of Crime and Punishment and The Brothers Karamazov-and the namesake of Elif Batuman's debut novel, The IdiotReturning to St Petersburg from a Swiss sanatorium, the gentle and naïve epileptic Prince Myshkin- known as the "idiot"-pays a visit to his distant relative General Yepanchin and proceeds to charm the General and his family. But his life is thrown into turmoil when he chances on a photograph of the beautiful Nastasya Filippovna. Utterly infatuated, he soon finds himself caught up in a love triangle and drawn into a web of blackmail, betrayal, and finally, murder. In Prince Myshkin, Dostoyevsky portrays the purity of "a truly beautiful soul" and explores the perils that innocence and goodness face in a corrupt world.David McDuff's translation brilliantly captures the novel's idiosyncratic and dream-like language and the nervous, elliptic flow of the narrative. This edition also contains an introduction by William Mills Todd III, which is a fascinating examination of the pressures on Dostoyevsky as he wrote the story of his Christ-like hero.Review"A book that manages like no other to plunge fearlessly into suffering while at the same time illuminating the enduring, almost unspeakable beauty of the human." -Laurie Sheck, The Atlantic"One of the most excoriating, compelling, and remarkable books ever written: and without question one of the greatest." -A. C. Grayling"A masterpiece . . . a fact of world literature just as important as the densely dramatic Brothers Karamazov or the brilliantly subtle and terrifying Devils. . . . [an] excellent new translation." -The Guardian"McDuff's language is rich and alive." -The New York Times Book Review"[The Idiot's] narrative is so compelling." -Rowan Williams, Archbishop of CanterburyAbout the AuthorFyodor Dostoyevsky (1821-1881) was a Russian novelist, journalist, and short-story writer whose novels Crime and Punishment and The Brothers Karamazov rank among the greatest of the nineteenth century.David McDuff (translator) has translated many works of nineteenth-century Russian literature, including works by Dostoyevsky, Tolstoy, and Leskov for Penguin Classics.William Mills Todd III (introducer) is a professor of Slavic languages at Harvard.
