Private Memoirs And Confessions Of A Justified Sinner

Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified Sinner

by James Hogg

Set in 18th-century Scotland, amidst a society rife with religious extremism, 'Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified Sinner' delves into the twisted psyche of Robert Wringhim, a young man convinced of his own righteousness. Driven by an unwavering belief in his divine election, Wringhim embarks on a journey of violence and manipulation, blurring the lines between sanity and depravity. As he seeks to justify his heinous acts, Wringhim's narrative becomes an unsettling exploration of guilt, madness, and the nature of evil.
