USC, 2025

Can a thief be truly honest? In An Honest Thief, Fyodor Dostoevsky presents a deeply human and morally complex tale that explores the boundaries between honesty and deception. The story revolves around Emelyan Ilyich, a down-and-out drunkard who is given shelter by the narrator. He seems harmless, pitiful even—until a betrayal forces a painful revelation. But is Emelyan truly a criminal, or is he a man burdened by guilt, shame, and an unshakable conscience?
