I particularly like "Razumihin" and "Sonia" in the book. They are all kind, lovable characters. As for the male protagonist, he vividly expresses the contradiction between good and evil in human nature. Regardless of whether he admits that killing is a sin and a mistake, his inner pain is eventually healed and saved by love.
Not bad, good translation
