*Blurb*
"Conceived while Dostoyevsky was serving a four-year sentence of hard labour in Siberia, Crime and Punishment offers a chilling insight into the universal struggle between mind and soul. Tension and claustrophobia electrify the pages as they disclose the story of Raskolnikov, a starving student who convinces himself that logically, the murder of an odious money-lender is entirely justified. However, the forces of logic have no bearing on the workings of conscience …
Sir Stephen Tumim was an English judge and Her Majesty’s Chief Inspector of Prisons from 1987 to 1995. His introduction to this Folio edition finds him discovering Crime and Punishment for the first time; in a fascinating piece, he uses his unique experience of the system to examine Raskolnikov’s punishment, and the relative mercy of Russian justice at the time. He looks too at the interweaving of British and Russian literature of the period; Dostoyevsky himself was a devotee of Dickens, while Robert Louis Stevenson was to write The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde in homage to Crime and Punishment."
