The Story of Crime and Punishment by Sonja Bougaeva
Desperate to escape his poverty, the poor student Raskolnikov murders his pawnbroker and her sister. At first, nobody suspects him, but his own conscience plagues him incessantly - and it isn't long before a police detective to have his doubts about Raskolnikov's innocence, and is determined to make him confess.
Praise for the Save the Story series: "Enticing, generously sized and dashingly illustrated.. brilliantly told by top-flight novelists, they are fresh, idiosyncratic and winning" - Guardian; "This handsomely illustrated series... offers younger readers vivid, accessible first encounters with some literary heavyweights" Metro Magnificent... A beautifully produced and illustrated introduction to the cerebral works of Dostoyevsky... should be on every child's bookshelf The Bay A faithful retelling... very considerate... I'm going to applaud the publisher for helping young British readers learn about some of the most extraordinary gems of foreign literature and making them so accessible School Library Association
