《卡拉玛佐夫兄弟》堪称陀思妥耶夫斯基的代表作。故事来源于一桩真实的弑父案,描写了两代人之间的矛盾与冲突。主人公老卡拉玛佐夫有四个儿子:德米特里、伊凡、阿廖沙及私生子斯麦尔加科夫。已至暮年的老卡拉玛佐夫不改贪婪好色的本性,不仅霸占妻子留给孩子们的遗产,还与长子德米特里为一个风流女子争风吃醋,致使父子不睦。德米特里痛恨父亲,扬言要杀死他。一天晚上,他怀疑父亲与自己的情人幽会,一怒之下将父亲打成重伤,仓皇而逃。是夜,老卡拉玛佐夫死了,德米特里被捕。可是,真正的凶手却是私生子斯麦尔加科夫,为了发泄长期积怨,他在暗中残忍杀死受重伤的父亲。这起扑朔迷离的血案引发一系列惊心动魄的故事。小说的结局很悲惨:德米特里无辜入狱,斯麦尔加科夫畏罪自杀,伊凡精神错乱,阿廖沙远走他乡。
