In the novel, Darkness at Noon, Rubashov alludes to the character of Raskolnikov in Crime and Punishment.

“Do you remember ‘Raskolnikov’?”

Ivanov smiled at him with irony. “It was to be expected that you would sooner or later come to that. Crime and Punishment ... You are really becoming childish or senile. ...”
