Crime And Punishment - Part 2
Description
Reading age 14
This is Part II of Fyodor Dostoevsky’s Crime and Punishment, presented in a fresh modern translation by A.B. Kunjuk.
In this section, the aftermath of Raskolnikov’s desperate act begins to unfold. Tormented by guilt and paranoia, he finds himself caught between moments of feverish delirium and flashes of cold calculation. The walls of St. Petersburg close in tighter as suspicion grows, and the circle of characters—family, friends, and investigators—tightens around him. Dostoevsky’s masterful psychological insight reveals the crushing weight of conscience and the terrifying consequences of crossing moral boundaries.
This modern translation by A.B. Kunjuk makes Dostoevsky’s intense prose vivid and accessible for today’s readers. By dividing the novel into six parts (plus an epilogue), this edition allows readers to experience the masterpiece step by step, with the clarity and immediacy of contemporary English.
