A Seemingly Well-reasoned Justification Of Murder Comes To Pieces As The Murderer Is Forced To Confront The True Nature Of His Crime.after Much Thought Rodion Raskolnikov Determines That Certain Special People Deserve The Right To Step Outside Of Normal Law And Order To Accomplish Difficult Deeds For The Good Of Others And Even Humanity As A Whole. Trapped In Desperate Poverty, He Justifies His Plan To Rob And Kill A Rich, Unpopular Pawnbroker, Reasoning That He Will Take The Money, Survive And Go On To Do Good Things For Others. The Terrible Act Of Murder, And The Unstoppable Cascade Of Events That Follow, Throw Raskolnikov Into A Nightmare Of Mental Unbalance And Moral Torment.
