Who killed Fyodor Karamazov? Each of his sons had a motive, but who is truly guilty of the crime?

Was it headstrong and passionate Dmitri, the oldest son, involved in a love triangle with his father and the beautiful Grushenka? It could have been a younger son, intellectual student Ivan or Alyosha, who is studying to become a monk. What about Smerdyakov the cook, widely thought to be Karamazov's illegitimate son?

Often called one of the greatest novels of all time by one of the world's greatest novelists, The Brothers Karamazov is a deeply philosophical work disguised as a simple murder mystery. The big questions of human existence—faith, free will, and moral responsibility—are examined from every angle in Dostoevsky's sweeping tale of conflict and tragedy.
