Features: Fyodor Dostoevsky, the author of "Crime and Punishment," was a Russian writer born in 1826 and died in 1881. Rodion Raskolnikov is a poor student in St. Petersburg. He meticulously planned a crime, killing an old widow and her step-sister who ran a pawn shop with an axe and stealing some jewelry from their apartment. In a conversation with Porfiry, who was investigating the murder, Raskolnikov defends himself and elaborates on his theory: a genius can achieve their goals by any means, and he believes himself to be a genius. Svidrigailov arrived in St. Petersburg. When Dunya was hired as a governess by him, she suffered greatly. Raskolnikov is in great pain. He goes to the police station. Raskolnikov turns himself in to the police and is sentenced to eight years of hard labor in Siberia. Dunya and Razumikhin successfully run a publishing business and get married. Sonya follows Raskolnikov to Siberia and lives in a village near the exile camp. Due to her kindness to Raskolnikov and other prisoners, everyone calls her Sonya Mama. With her help, Raskolnikov begins a new life.
