The Brothers Karamazov (Selected Collections of Dostoevsky)

"The Brothers Karamazov" is a novel written by Russian writer Fyodor Dostoevsky and one of his masterpieces. The book is adapted from a real patricide case, describing the sharp conflict between the old Karamazov and his three sons, as well as the court trial of the patricide case. The whole novel has two levels: on the surface, it is a case of patricide, and the victim's sons are suspected of conspiracy to some extent; but on a deeper level, it is a drama about the human spirit, telling a moral battle between lust, faith, reason and free will. The work shows an intricate tragic theme of society, family, morality and human nature.
