Book Overview
The Victim of Intolerance; Or, The Hermit of Killarney, penned by Robert Torrens and originally published in 1814, delves into themes of religious persecution and social injustice in early 19th-century Ireland. Set against the backdrop of the picturesque yet often tumultuous landscape of Killarney, the novel follows the plight of a character driven to isolation by the intolerance of his community.
Torrens masterfully weaves elements of gothic romance with social commentary, creating a narrative that is both captivating and thought-provoking. This edition offers readers a glimpse into the historical context of religious tensions and the personal tragedies they engendered, making it a valuable addition to collections of historical fiction and early 19th-century literature.
