The Brothers Karamazov (Penguin Classics) (2003) (US)

The Brothers Karamazov: A Novel in Four Parts and an Epilogue (Penguin Classics) Paperback – 27 Feb. 2003 by Fyodor Dostoyevsky (Author), David McDuff (Introduction, Translator), US.

'The most magnificent novel ever written' Sigmund Freud

The murder of brutal landowner Fyodor Karamazov changes the lives of his sons irrevocably: Mitya, the sensualist, whose bitter rivalry with his father immediately places him under suspicion for parricide; Ivan, the intellectual, driven to breakdown; the spiritual Alyosha, who tries to heal the family's rifts; and the shadowy figure of their bastard half-brother, Smerdyakov. Dostoyevsky's dark masterwork evokes a world where the lines between innocence and corruption, good and evil, blur, and everyone's faith in humanity is tested.

Translated with an Introduction and notes by DAVID McDUFF
