Description

Behold, dear reader, a magnificent tome from Penguin's exquisite Clothbound Classics collection. These sumptuous volumes, adorned with Coralie Bickford-Smith's award-winning designs, boast vibrant, tactile cloth covers embellished with gleaming foil accents. A true feast for the bibliophile's senses!

Within these pages unfolds the gripping tale of Raskolnikov, a poverty-stricken former scholar who prowls the squalid streets of St Petersburg. In a moment of desperation, he commits a heinous act without a shred of remorse. Fancying himself a great man—a Napoleon, no less—he believes his actions transcend the boundaries of conventional morality.

But hark! The game is afoot as Raskolnikov engages in a perilous battle of wits with the astute detective Porfiry. As the net of suspicion tightens, our anti-hero finds himself hounded by the relentless voice of his own conscience. Only Sonya, a downtrodden woman of ill repute, offers a glimmer of hope for redemption.

As the investigation unfolds and the trial commences, the true identity of the perpetrator comes to light. Dostoyevsky's dark masterpiece paints a world where the lines between innocence and depravity blur, challenging the very foundations of one's faith in humanity. A most intriguing case indeed, Watson!

Why Sherlock & Pages?

Sherlock & Pages is a little bookshop with a big heart. We are based in Frome, Somerset, England and curate lists of books in the areas we are passionate about – landscape, nature, history, and heritage. In short, the conservation of all we’ve inherited and all we are responsible to pass on. We aim to inspire and be inspired, to form a literary culture of care and passion about this precious planet we call home.

This is a shop where you might find something you haven’t seen before, and we like to think we’ve got something for everyone. We choose each of our books with care and for a reason. This is because our physical store is small but beautifully formed, holding only around 1200 titles at any one time. We try and recreate the feel of the shop wherever we are online, to reflect our niche categories and personality.

We have an active social media presence and aim to share our story with all our friends. The long-term goal is to build a hub for the books and writers we believe in. Who knows where our adventure will lead but by supporting Sherlock & Pages you’re helping us to add a further layer of magic to our little corner of the world. If you haven’t visited our physical store, one day you might just make a literary pilgrimage down to Somerset.

Our tagline is ‘Long Live the Hedgerows’ and our symbol a hibernating dormouse. If you want to support an independent with a unique character and which will share stories with you for years to come, then choose Sherlock & Pages. The world needs bookshops with soul, for they are ‘citadels of light.’
