Introduction

Reading is essential for keeping your brain active and healthy. Just like any other muscle, your brain needs exercise to stay in shape.

Reading regularly can help you maintain mental agility and prevent cognitive decline.

  • Read daily, multiple times a day: Make reading a habit, just like brushing your teeth. You don't get any reward if you brush your teeth but in time you can see the difference.
  • Set a minimum page goal: Aim to read at least 10 pages per session. Gradually increase your reading speed and comprehension over time.

Don't let a lack of funds stop you from reading. Here are some websites where you can download free books:

Crime and Punishment
Crime and Punishment

Author: Fyodor Dostoevsky

Published: 1 - 2025

Opinion: Crime and Punishment, a war between freedom and imprisonment, between guilty and unguilty, between lie and truth. Raskolnikov, the main character of the book, is going through a series of thoughts and testing that don't give him peace. After he killed a pawnbroker along with her sister(this is actually a mistake of him of which he's sorry) he pleads unguilty hoping he will escape of punishment. The police doesn't have evidence for his deed so he can't be arrested. Later on, after a series of actions who convinced him that he can't live in lie anymore, he decides to surrender and admit the truth. There are some aspects of the book specific to the 18th century period, which are consider important to mention. The first one, the relationship of Raskolnikov's sister, Dunia, with his fiance Lujin, a rich man but way more older than the girl. Their relationship is no based on love and hopefully she will not marry him. Another controversial relationship of Svidrigailov, another rich man who was about to marry with a minor girl, but in the end he kill himself. And finally Sonia, a beautiful lady pushed to prostitute because of poverty, who will start a new life with Raskolnikov after he will finish his punishment. In the end I recommend watching the movie directed by Josef von Sternberg in 1935, which sticks to the book very well, even some details are missed.
