If you ever have to explain the feeling of guilt and coming to terms with major wrong-doings to anyone, this book is the best to show a perfect depiction: from committing an almost "justified" and understandable murder (in the terms of fiction, of course, therefore allowing more leeway for unlawful behaviour for storytelling effects) to being a man completely crippled by guilt and remorse, the main character depicts all the tragedy and pain of taking someone's life. A classic read.
