William Styron

The Confessions of Nat Turner

New York: Random House, 1967.

First printing. 


Styron's remarkable re-creation of the last days of the doomed rebel Nat Turner, who led a catastrophic slave rebellion in 1831, believing that God was on his side. 


Turner slaughtered his master and the owners of several neighbouring farms, before being overpowered and condemned to a death (by being flayed alive).  


Styron thus vividly confronts the grim realities of slavery in nineteenth century America.  


Book jacket has slight wear to edges and front flap. 


Hardcover.
