Crime and Punishment-

Was it really his duty to kill the older lady? Was it absolutely necessary to kill her sister? Is any level of personal satisfaction to blame for his crimes? I can’t help but feel these “signs” (the map route etc) were only signs because he wanted them to be!

Thank you so much for asking!!!!

In part one, Raskolnikov really doesn't want to be there seems to be no other option. Of course we know all about free will, yet how many times have we needed or wanted to do something then proceed to do the opposite.

The drunk man, Marmeladov, who Raskolnikov meets at the pub (equivalent) loves his family and would love to make them proud, he does for a short while when he gets his job back, but that first paycheck, he runs off for a week and gets drunk. He knew how disappointed his family would be and the beating he'd get from his wife but it happened anyway, maybe if this was his story his fate would've been signposted too.

Every time Raskolnikov makes up his mind that he just can't do it, trying to control what seems predestined, a new damning piece of the story highlights itself. On his way walking home, on autopilot, finds himself walking the long way home past the market, overhearing conversation that the mean old woman is going to be home alone. If he wanted to do it, hearing this would surely be job, but he was devastated being presented the opportunity to fulfil this "destiny".

I'm sure we'll find out more in part two!!!

The Trial by Kafka

*Spoilers if you want to read*

If you think you're oppressed, you are.

In the story the main character Josef K (referred to as "K") gets arrested at the start. Through out he learns drips and drabs about the legal system he's being accused by. He does not learn what he's accused of, when his court date is, and what his punishment might be. But rest assured, he is told his case is very serious and he is in a lot of trouble, so best behaviour yeah? During the year that follows he becomes a shell of what he used to be and what he stood for, becoming unfocused on work and no longer making meaningful relationships with those around him.

At the end he is unceremoniously killed at the middle of the night with a knife in the chest on a rock under the moon. K was strangely at peace with this.

K suffered more in the year leading up to his execution, every minute looking over his shoulder, wondering what, where and when any of the process would take a step forward. What a relief when it finally came to an end.

Most of our daily life is spent worrying bills, rent, relationships and anything under the sun. Worrying that the sky is going to fall causes more harm than the sky actually falling.
