About

The story of Crime and Punishment follows Raskolnikov and how he commited the crime of murder.  He over hears some people talking about how better off they would be if the pawn broker was gone, and he also heard how she would be alone the next night so Raskolnikov decided to murder her, and when he did her sister walked in while looking for money and he ended up killing her to. It goes on to telling of how the guilt got to him and the regret. Another result was isolation from his family, who were trying to help him. The big question through the book is what is the greater punishment, the anticipation of your imprisonment or the constant regret and mental torment you get just when the murder is mentioned.
