“Crime and Punishment” is a novel by the Russian writer, literary critic, and philosopher Fyodor Dostoevsky, published in 1866. The central theme of the novel is the spiritual portrait of Russian youth in the 1860s. One of the main issues addressed in the novel is the idea of nihilism, which had spread among radical youth during the 1860s. Through this, the author sought to demonstrate what losing faith in God and abandoning morality could lead to.
