Crime and Punishment
Fyodor Dostoevsky
In Fyodor Dostoevsky's Crime and Punishment, you meet Raskolnikov, a conflicted man with dual personalities: cold, detached intellect and warm compassion. He develops the theory of the Ubermensch (superior man) — who stands alone and above the law — and uses the theory as justification for murder. Dostoevsky's masterpiece of Russian literature joins these opposing parts of Raskolnikov's personality into a single functioning person, and sets him on the road to redemption.
