FranÃ§ois Mauriac,Robert Coles,Warre B. Wells
The masterpiece of one of the twentieth centuryâ€™s greatest Catholic writers, ,Vipersâ€™ Tangle, tells the story of Monsieur Louis, an embittered aging lawyer who has spread his misery to his entire estranged family. Louis writes a journal to explain to themâ€”and to himselfâ€”why his soul has been deformed, why his heart seems like a foul nest of twisted serpents. Mauriacâ€™s novel masterfully explores the corruption caused by pride, avarice, and hatred, and its oppositeâ€”the divine grace that remains available to each of us until the very moment of our deaths. It is the unforgettable tale of the battle for one manâ€™s soul.
