Fyodor Dostoevsky has always been on my list of authors I wanted to explore. I had heard so much about his ability to dive into the human mind, and I was eager to see it for myself.

As I read, I found myself completely absorbed in Raskolnikov’s inner struggle—his guilt, fear, and moments of cold calculation fascinated me. I loved how the novel made me question morality and justice, and I often caught myself reflecting on my own ideas of right and wrong.
