Set in 1831, The Confessions Of Nat Turner tells--in his own words--of a black man who 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.'
Review:
"This is a first-rate novel...and the best by an American writer that has appeared in some years...Styron maintains throughout his narrative a consistent and highly imaginative realism not only on the object plane, but also by recreating the intimate psychology of his characters...In a way inconceivable, even for Faulkner, Styron's prose master."
Philip Rahv, New York Review of Books, 10/26/67
Review:"Styron has freely, with luxurious imagination, reconstructed Nat Turner's life from the 20-page confession to the court that then had him hanged...The real achievement of this beautiful, curious, essentially dreamlike narrative is [that Styron] has been able to create with his honest sense of the tragic, a man whom the locked-up force of daily, hourly, constant suppression has turned into a Stranger--someone who remains single, separate, wholly other from ourselves and our notions...What we have here is a wonderfully evocative portrait of a gifted, proud, long-suppressed human being who began to live only when he was sentenced to die."
Alfred Kazin, Book World, 10/8/1967
