The Grand Inquisitor from The Brothers Karamazov

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, whose mental tortures drive him to breakdown; the spiritual Alyosha, who tries to heal the family\u27s rifts; and the shadowy figure of their bastard half-brother, Smerdyakov. As the ensuing investigation and trial reveal the true identity of the murder, Dostoyevsky\u27s dark masterwork evokes a world where the lines between innocence and corruption, good and evil, blur, and everyone\u27s faith in humanity is tested. Translated from the Russian by Constance Garnett
