Meer over het boek

Exploring profound ethical debates, this novel delves into themes of God, free will, and morality within the context of 19th-century Russia. It presents a spiritual and theological drama centered on moral struggles involving faith, doubt, judgment, and reason, all framed by the intense plot of patricide. Set against a backdrop of a rapidly modernizing society, the narrative reflects Dostoevsky's own experiences while writing in Staraya Russa, solidifying its status as a monumental work in world literature.
