    About this ebook

    Zakharin’s parody of Dostoyevsky’s classic novel ‘Crime and Punishment’—also including elements from Dostoyevsky’s novel ‘The Brothers Karamazov’ and his short story ‘The Dream of a Ridiculous Man’—but with the grittier, more adult themes (such as murder and prostitution and alcoholism) toned down and obscured to (in theory) make it more appropriate for younger readers. [FYI: I wouldn’t really read it to your kids, if I were you...]

    Author

    Mishka Zakharin

    Mishka Zakharin was born in 1970 in Wisconsin--where his existence yet rolls lackadaisically along... he earned a Bachelor of Arts in English from UW-Whitewater, graduating Magna Cum Laude, in 1992, and has since published various anthologies of poetry, prose, and miscellaneous ramblings... influences in Zakharin's writing include Shakespeare and the greats of 19th Century Russian literature, as well as Jack Kerouac and Pablo Neruda... odder moments can best be attributed to Groucho Marx, Steve Martin, and Monty Python...
