Book Synopsis The Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified Sinner (Gothic Classic) by : James Hogg

This book was released on 2024-01-10 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In James Hogg's 'The Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified Sinner', the reader is taken on a haunting journey into the dark realms of human psychology and religious fanaticism. Written in a fragmented, multi-narrative style, the novel blurs the lines between reality and illusion, truth and fiction, making it a seminal work in the Gothic literary tradition. Hogg explores themes of duality, morality, and the nature of sin, challenging the reader to question the very foundations of good and evil. The book's intricate plot and unreliable narrators keep the reader on edge, creating a sense of unease that lingers long after the final page is turned. James Hogg, a Scottish author and poet, drew inspiration from his own religious background and the folklore of his native land to craft this complex and thought-provoking novel. His deep understanding of human nature and the complexities of the human psyche shine through in the intricate characterization and psychological depth of the book. I highly recommend 'The Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified Sinner' to readers who enjoy dark, atmospheric tales that delve into the depths of the human soul. Hogg's masterful storytelling and exploration of timeless themes make this Gothic classic a must-read for anyone interested in the darker side of human nature.

Book Synopsis Confessions of a Justified Sinner by : James Hogg
Download or read book Confessions of a Justified Sinner written by James Hogg and published by Everyman's Library. This book was released on 2015-03-18 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comic and terrifying novel about a man haunted by the Devil in the form of his own evil double. James Hogg (1770–1835) was a Scottish poet, novelist, and farmer whose work was discovered by Sir Walter Scott and admired by writers as different as Wordsworth and Byron. His most famous book, Confessions of a Justified Sinner, published in 1824 and set in seventeenth-century Scotland, is a vivid exploration of fanaticism and the power of evil. The novel’s anti-hero, a young man named Robert Wringhim, falls under the influence of an enigmatic, shape-shifting companion, Gil-Martin, who convinces him that he is one of God’s chosen few and thus justified even in committing murder. Robert begins by focusing his murderous intentions on his more worldly and popular half-brother, the son of the Laird of Dalcastle, but before long he is besieged by doubts about his beliefs and even his own identity. Anticipating Dostoevsky’s great dramas of sin, self-accusation, and damnation by half a century, Hogg’s masterpiece employs a comparable combination of black comedy, bitter realism, and colorful narrative sweep. Everyman's Library pursues the highest production standards, printing on acid-free cream-colored paper, with full-cloth cases with two-color foil stamping, decorative endpapers, silk ribbon markers, and European-style half-round spines. Everyman’s Library Classics include an introduction, a select bibliography, and a chronology of the author's life and times. Introduction by Roger Lewis

Book excerpt: Calder Moor is a wild and deadly place: many have been trapped in the myriad limestone caves, lost in collapsed copper mines, injured on perilous gritstone ridges. But this time, when two bodies are discovered in the shadow of the ancient circle of stones known as Nine Sisters Henge, it is clearly not a case for Mountain Rescue. The corpses are those of a young man and woman. Each met death in a different fashion. Each died violently. To Detective Inspector Thomas Lynley, brought in to investigate by special request, this grisly crime promises to be one of the toughest assignments of his career. For the unfortunate Nicola Maiden was the daughter of a former officer in an elite undercover unit, a man Lynley once regarded as a mentor. Now, as Lynley struggles to find out if Nicola's killer was an enemy of her father's or one she earned herself, a disgraced Barbara Havers, determined to redeem herself in the eyes of her longtime partner, crisscrosses London seeking information on the second murder victim. Yet the more dark secrets Lynley and Havers uncover, the more they learn that neither the victims nor the suspects are who they appear to be. And once again they come up against the icy realization that human relationships are often murderous...and that the blood that binds can also kill.

Book Synopsis Hard Rain Falling by : Don Carpenter
Download or read book Hard Rain Falling written by Don Carpenter and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2010-06-23 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A hardboiled novel about life in the American underground, from the pool halls of Portland to the cells of San Quentin. Simply one of the finest books ever written about being down on your luck. Don Carpenter’s Hard Rain Falling is a tough-as-nails account of being down and out, but never down for good—a Dostoyevskian tale of crime, punishment, and the pursuit of an ever-elusive redemption. The novel follows the adventures of Jack Levitt, an orphaned teenager living off his wits in the fleabag hotels and seedy pool halls of Portland, Oregon. Jack befriends Billy Lancing, a young black runaway and pool hustler extraordinaire. A heist gone wrong gets Jack sent to reform school, from which he emerges embittered by abuse and solitary confinement. In the meantime Billy has joined the middle class—married, fathered a son, acquired a business and a mistress. But neither Jack nor Billy can escape their troubled pasts, and they will meet again in San Quentin before their strange double drama comes to a violent and revelatory end.
