Retells the classic story of a murderer and the psychological punishment he endures before he finally comes to trial, in graphic novel format. - Sterling
âAnd, in the dark, a thought came to me that no one had ever had before me: I wanted to kill someone, just in order to dare.â
This graphic adaptation of Crime and Punishment masterfully illuminates Dostoevskyâs psychological thriller. Acclaimed French artist Alain Korkos vividly brings to life the mental anguish and moral dilemmas that plague Raskolnikov, a poor St. Petersburg student who murders a miserly pawnbroker. In this classic of Russian literature, the hero, unable to quell his guilt and paranoia, falls from a self-styled âsuper humanâ to a tormented soul in search of redemption. Both a philosophical inquiry and searing social critique, this suspense-driven drama remains as widely popular today as ever.
