Sinopse

Set against the backdrop of Czarist Russia and revolutionary ferment, this novel tracks the harrowing journey of a student entangled in a web of assassination and betrayal. Guilt becomes an unbearable burden as the protagonist navigates the cold, suspicious atmosphere of Geneva’s exile community. It is a chillingly relevant study of political radicalism and the search for redemption.

    Part of the original Harvard Classics compendium series • One of TIME's 100 Best Mystery and Thriller Books of All Time  
    Crime and Punishment tells the story of Rodion Raskolnikov, an ex-student who plans to murder a pawnbroker to test his theory of personality. Having accomplished the deed, Raskolnikov struggles with mental anguish while trying to both avoid the consequences and hide his guilt from his friends and family.  
    Dostoevsky’s original idea for the novel centered on the Marmeladov family and the impact of alcoholism in Russia, but inspired by a double murder in France he decided to rework it around the new character of Raskolnikov. The novel was first serialized in The Russian Messenger over the course of 1866, where it was an instant success. It was published in a single volume in 1867.   
    This new and unabridged audiobook edition is based on Constance Garnett’s 1914 translation.

    The story of a beauty and a beast reimagined. 
    Mara never dreamed of escape. Not really. How can a bird caged all her life ever think to fly? When a chance opportunity presents itself for the princess of Dunhill to flee her upcoming marriage and the cruel family that arranged it, she spreads her wings. But fate has other plans. 
    After narrowly surviving an encounter with the fabled Beast of the Blackwood—a dragon that stalks the forest that separates Dunhill from neighboring kingdoms—she finds herself in the unwilling company of Baron Gannon Black. He is mercurial at best, downright rude at worst. 
    The Black estate is teeming with secrets and the brusque baron is none too keen for Mara to unravel the mystery of the Black line. But hiding himself from the princess becomes impossible as he learns she is much more than the timid, bland daughter of the king. Can he keep her cloaked from the family that seeks to drag her back to her prison of etiquette and expectation or will her presence bring the long kept secrets of the Black family to light?
