About this listen
A century after it first appeared, Crime and Punishment remains one of the most gripping psychological thrillers. A poverty-stricken young man, seeing his family making sacrifices for him, is faced with an opportunity to solve his financial problems with one simple but horrifying act: the murder of a pawnbroker. She is, he feels, just a parasite on society. But does the end justify the means? Rodion Romanovitch Raskolnikov makes his decision and then has to live with it. Dostoyevsky, in masterly fashion, contrasts the comedy and tragedy of life in St. Petersburg with the anguish and turmoil of Raskolnikov's inner life.

Remarkable!
The main character takes you on a mad nail biting journey.
With the help of excellent narration you can almost feel the heat in the streets and taste the dusty air.

Fantastic. A lot at times, but loved it overall
I really enjoyed this book. The story is a wild ride with seriously dark moments. You intimately know the characters. Dialogue heavy. Quite intricate. Loved it.

A brilliant tale, and characters who touch the soul.
I should give five stars for the delivery also, however there were a couple of the voices that hated a little - overall incredible reading of a complex story. enjoyed immensely, and very glad I listened to the epilogues.

Deserving.
Whew, what a ride. I think back on this book like a feverish night. Visceral, tiring, yellow and dark. A beautiful romp in the mind of a Napoleonic wannebe.

Great.
Captivating from the start. Loved every dark detailed moment of the inner turmoil of Raskolnikovs tortured mind. Every character comes to life and is portrayed purely as perceived by him as he struggles with poverty and addiction and the expectation of others.

One of the greatest literary feats
Firstly, advice for any reader. Google ‘Crime and Punishment characters’ and get yourself familiar with cast early on, the names are complicated, confusing and ever changing. By briefly learning the names you’ll follow and enjoy the story much more.
The story is gripping. The writing is impeccable. The translation is perhaps even more astounding. And the narration is the best I’ve heard on Audible.
The fact this was written 150 years ago is particularly impressive and you get a real sense of what life was like in Petersburg, and perhaps elsewhere in Europe, at the time.
