In "Crime and Punishment", Dostoevsky dives into the mind of Raskolnikov, an arrogant young man who dreams of becoming a 'great man', but who believes the first step of his ascent is committing a murder. Once there's blood on his hands, however, Raskolnikov's world becomes ever more claustrophobic and nightmarish, forcing him to confront not only justice, but the nature of his own delusions.
