Crime and Punishment
A Norton Critical Edition
(Author) Fyodor Dostoevsky"These are the voices of Crime and Punishment in all their original, dazzling variety: pensive, urgent, defiant, and triumphant. This new translation by Michael Katz revives the intensity Dostoevsky's first readers experienced." --Susan McReynolds, Northwestern University "Mesmerizingly good . . . the best, truest translation of Dostoevsky's masterpiece into English. It's a magnificent, almost terrifying achievement of translation, one that makes its predecessors, however worthy, seem safe and polite." --Steve Donoghue, Open Letters Monthly
