The Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified Sinner
ISBN: 9781533330147 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 132 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Set in early eighteenth-century Scotland, the novel recounts the corruption of a boy of strict Calvinist parentage by a mysterious stranger under whose influence he commits a series of murders. The stranger assures the boy that no sin can affect the salvation of an elect person. The reader, while recognizing the stranger as Satan, is prevented by the subtlety of the novel's structure from finally deciding whether, for all his vividness and wit, he is more than a figment of the boy's imagination.

Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified Sinner
ISBN: 9781604594799 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 156 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. On the surface, this novel is a simple tale of a young man who encounters a shape-shifting devil, an early manifestation of a doppelganger, and the various misadventures that follow. This novel was perhaps the first post modern novel; it employs clustered narratives, self-reflexive point-of-view, unreliable narrators, and unsympathetic-protagonist. This is indeed a land mark novel.

The Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified Sinner
ISBN: 9780748663156 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. A TLS International Book of the Year(TLS, Dec 7, 2001)This now-famous book was given a hostile reception when it first appeared in 1824. It was not reprinted until the late 1830s, when a heavily bowdlerised version was included in a posthumous edition of Hogg's collected Tales and Sketches published by Blackie & Son of Glasgow. Thereafter Confessions of a Justified Sinner attracted little interest until the 1890s, when the unbowdlerised text was printed for the first time since the 1820s. However, the current high reputation of Hogg's novel did not fully begin to establish itself until 1947,...
