FREE: The Confessions of Nat Turner

The listing, The Confessions of Nat Turner has ended.

In 1831 a black man awaits death in a Virginia jail cell. His name is Nat Turner, and he is a slave, a Preacher, and the leader of the only effective slave revolt in the history of that "peculiar institution" William Styron's vastly ambitious and stunningly accomplished novel, winner of the Pulitzer Price, is Turner's confession made to his jailers under duress of his God, a narrative that depicts a good man's transformation into an avenging angel even as it encompasses all the betrayals, cruelties, and humiliations that made up slavery- and that still scar the collective psyches of both races. This book is fiction, yet based on facts in part, I have read it 3 times and it is a tear jerk-er, an eye opener and hard to put down once you start reading. A+++ Book.
