summary:
The story centers on the murder of Fyodor Pavlovitch Karamazov, a corrupt loutish landowner, and the aftermath for his sons: Dmitri, Ivan, Alexey, and the bastard Smerdyakov. Dmitri and his father both vie for the voluptuous Grushenka; and when Fyodor Pavlovitch is found murdered, his oldest son is arrested. Fyodor Pavlovitch's three sons--the passionate Dmitri, the coldly intellectual Ivan, and the spiritual Alexey--are vastly different, but all are seeking something beyond the chaotic world their barbarous father brought them into.
