|  | How I Became a Writer & Oggie Learned to Drive by Janet Taylor Lisle
Eleven-year-old Archie protects his little brother, Oggie, who is a skittish child always being bullied. With their parents divorced--the boys refer to their two homes as Saturn and Jupiter --the boys rely on each other for everything, so when Oggie's wallet, stuffed with his savings, is stolen by a motley gang, Archie promises to retrieve it. The mess that follows involves a hold-up, a getaway car, and Archie's musings on death and tragedy. AUTHOR: Janet Taylor Lisle

 | Crime and Punishment by Constance Garnett, Constance Black Garnett, Fyodor Dostoyevsky, George Gibian, James McConnell
This 1866 novel is Dostoevsky's great fictional study of the criminal mind, in the character of the student Raskolnikov, who murders an aged pawnbroker. Initially, Raskolnikov believes that the killing was entirely justified, but as the novel proceeds he becomes tortured by his guilt, and begins to question all his most passionately held beliefs. Eventually, while the wily police inspector Porfiry Petrovich simply waits, Raskolnikov--prompted by Sonia, a prostitute who is devoted to him--breaks down and confesses. Despite its bleak subject matter, the novel holds out the possibility of redemption; it is also an indictment of the social conditions in which the action unfolds.
