One of the greatest novels of all time, it successfully predicts the religious and political contours of the Twentieth Century. In the American film version, Alexey is played by William Shatner. (

Epigraph

Dedication

First words

Alexey Fyodorovich Karamazov was the third son of Fyodor Pavlovich Karamazov, a landowner well known in our district in his own day, and still remembered among us owing to his tragic and obscure death, which happened just thirteen years ago, and of which I shall speak in its proper place. (Garnett, 1912)
