He theorizes that with the money he could liberate himself from poverty and go on to perform great deeds and seeks to convince himself that certain crimes are justifiable if they are committed in order to remove obstacles to the higher goals of 'extraordinary' men. Once the deed is done, however, he finds himself wracked with confusion, paranoia, and disgust. His theoretical justifications lose all their power as he struggles with guilt and horror and is confronted with both internal and external consequences of his deed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Chiltern Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/29\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781914602627\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 280\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader Quiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e703 \/ Crime and Punishment (Unabridged)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.7 \/ \u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Upper Grade \/ \u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 40\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Fyodor Dostoevsky","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44608392233141,"sku":"9781914602627","price":21.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_3b8a5a06-d69e-4331-a06e-242cd7f04800.jpg?v=1725374606","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/crime-and-punishment-9781914602627","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
