| Publisher Description: Featured title on PBS's The Great American Read in 2018 This is the novel that ensured Fyodor Dostoyevsky's place as a giant of Russian literature. First published in 1866, this legendary work continues to enthrall readers around the world and earn Dostoyevsky legions of fans with every printing. Timeless, and breathtaking in scope, Crime and Punishment--the story of a young Russian intellectual's decision to murder a cruel pawnbroker and his subsequent intellectual and spiritual crisis--is one of the most famous novels in all of literature. This absorbing audiobook attacks the overly logical nihilistic ideals of reason and science and proves that only through love, self-denial, and suffering comes salvation. George Guidall's fluent interpretation of the Russian names enhances this deep, multi-leveled text, and liberates Dostoyevsky's eternal prose with dimensions of color and feeling lost to the printed page alone. |
