the devil’s monologue

"An extraordinary, simply sensationally provocative work! ​Imagine this: In one place you discover answers to all of your ​questions, as well as answers to some questions you did not ​know to ask, on a highly controversial subject. What is the ​genesis of corruption, evil, delinquency, misery, sin? Within ​these pages appear answers. Here it is-all you ever wanted to ​know about the devil-in his own words.

Ingenuously, the author uses a first person, major character who ​tells all. Because he is talking about himself, the brilliant narrator ​adds a sense of immediacy and authenticity to the "tales." He ​explains his very essence, sometimes adding an aside to his ​extended soliloquy. At other times he asks wonderful rhetorical ​questions that draw a reader in, thereby making the reader an ​active participant. His explanations for his "behavior" are as ​well-crafted combination of the truly fabulous and the fantastic, ​yet the responses are credible. One tends to think that one is ​reading history rather than mythology.

In the mesmerizing work, "Devil's Monologue," A. E. Hepburn, a ​teacher, writer, and a researcher, takes us on an unforgettable ​journey into the mysterious world of the devil. With captivating ​storytelling, the author unravels the secrets behind corruption, ​evil, and sin, providing answers to questions we didn't even ​know we had.

Hepburn's brilliance shines through with the use of simple ​language to bring the devil's perspective to life. Through the eyes ​of the devil, the tales become not just stories but immersive ​experiences. The author’s background in education and ​missionary work infuses the narrative with authenticity, making it ​a compelling exploration of the darker side of existence.

The"Devil's Monologue" is more than a book; it's a captivating ​escapade that lingers in the mind. A.E. Hepburn's storytelling ​prowess invites us to reflect not only on the devil's perspective ​but also on the broader questions of morality and human nature. ​This enthralling read leaves an indelible mark, urging us to ​ponder the complexities of our own existence.
