I haven’t read No Longer Human (yet) I can’t comment on the similarity. Crime and punishment is where the main character has a superiority complex, an inferiority complex, suicidal tendencies, egomaniac tendencies, and maniac depression all at once and it’s a glorious ball of character complexity. Beware, the main character goes in twenty page monologues which might not be your cup of tea.
If you’re going to read it in English, I recommend the Pevear and Volokhonsky translation.
