Summary "Rikos ja rangaistus" by Fyodor Dostoyevsky is a novel written in the mid-19th century. The story revolves around a troubled young man named Raskolnikov, who grapples with poverty and a profound internal conflict as he navigates life in St. Petersburg. The novel delves into themes of morality, guilt, and redemption as Raskolnikov contemplates a desperate course of action stemming from his dire circumstances. The opening of the narrative introduces Raskolnikov, highlighting his stark living conditions and the oppressive heat of summer. As he steps out into the streets, he is enveloped in a mix of dread and introspection, reflecting on his debts and his estrangement from his landlady. Raskolnikov’s thoughts reveal an anxious state of mind, filled with insecurity, as he grapples with his complex feelings about his position in a society that he believes is cruel and unjust. As he makes his way to meet an elderly pawnbroker, Aljona Ivanovna, his internal turmoil crescendos, setting the stage for the moral dilemmas that will unfold throughout the novel.
