Troubling Confessions: Speaking Guilt in Law and Literature 2nd edition
Brooks, Peter (Yale University)
This text juxtaposes cases from law and literature to view the kinds of truth we associate with confessions, and why we both rely on them and regard them with suspicion. By questioning the truths of confession, Brooks challenges us to reconsider how we demand confessions and what we do with them.
