Crime and Punishment is a novel by the Russian author Fyodor Dostoevsky. It was first published in the literary journal 'The Russian Messenger' in twelve monthly installments during 1866. Later, it was published in a single volume. It is the second of Dostoevsky's full-length novels following his return from 5 years of exile in Siberia. Crime and Punishment is considered the first great novel of his "mature" period of writing. Crime and Punishment focuses on the mental anguish and moral dilemmas of Rodion Raskolnikov, an impoverished ex-student in Saint Petersburg who formulates a plan to kill an unscrupulous pawnbroker for her money. Before the killing, Raskolnikov believes that with the money he could liberate himself from poverty and go on to perform great deeds; but confusion, hesitation, and chance muddy his plan for a morally justifiable killing.

« Dans l'ancien temps, un homme regardait le corps d'une fille et le trouvait désirable ; l'affaire est faite, mais aujourd'hui plus d'amour pur, plus de désir pur. Il n'y a plus d'émotion pure, car elle est mêlée de peur et de haine ; leur amour avait été une bataille, leur jouissance, une victoire, c'était un coup porté au parti, c'était un acte politique. » George Orwell - 1984
