Here's a list of some parallels between Sofya Ivanovna (mother of Ivan and Alyosha) and Grushenka. Although they are so different, I've found a surprising amount of them.

Both are daughters of deacons, described as timid orphans.

Both ran off with a superficially charming older man when they were teens, although for different reasons, and both ended up "indebted" to an exploitative and depraved older man, the same man in Sofya's case, a different one in Grushenka's.

Both have allegedly attempted to take their own lives before they were taken in.

Both have a crucial role in Alyosha's spiritual development. Not only that, but the events in question tap into a form of spirituality related to the Earth- mother. The memory of Sofya sobbing is juxtaposed with the image of the Mother of God, and Grushenka's heart- to- heart leads Alyosha to an ecstatic embrace of the Earth itself. Their hysterical tears, while judged as women's nonsense, move Alyosha's heart.

What could all of this truly mean? This amount of consequences can't be coincidental. I've got a bit more on it under the cut but even these alone are intriguing.

This is more of my own analysis, but they both share a Proserpine motif, that of the maiden dragged into the dark world. The reason why I bring up Proserpine is because she is mentioned once in a poem in Book III, in the context of Dmitri's lament about the degradation and vileness in the world. This state of earthly life is later compared to "Sodom", in which "man" keeps remembering and yearning for "the Madonna". This seemingly fruitless search is juxtaposed to Ceres' search for Proserpine. Pious Sofya was driven to the underworld and was lost to madness, but what about Grushenka? It's revealed that there still is something in her that can be brought back into the light, that she was a "treasure, a loving soul" found in the path of baseness.
