Crime and Punishment was a novel by Dostoevsky. In 1904, Vislor Turlough read the book over at least two days on a train to St Petersburg, on the trans-Siberia railway. He spent the whole time in an armchair, reading Crime and Punishment, or exchanging brief muted conversations in the lounge car, book still in hand, before returning to his reading. (PROSE: Gudok)
