It is considered one of the earliest examples of crime fiction in English literature and is based on the Thuggee cult that operated in India during the 19th century.</p><p>The novel is presented as the confession of Ameer Ali, a notorious Thug who recounts his life story and his involvement in the criminal activities of the Thuggee cult. Ameer Ali describes how he was initiated into the cult as a young boy and trained in the art of strangling travelers and robbing them of their valuables.</p><p>Through Ameer Alis narrative, Taylor provides a vivid and often sensationalized portrayal of the Thuggee cult, depicting its rituals, practices, and inner workings. The novel explores themes of crime, morality, and colonialism, and offers insights into the social and cultural context of British-ruled India.</p><p>"Confessions of a Thug" was highly influential in its time and contributed to the Western fascination with the exotic and mysterious aspects of Indian culture. It remains a notable work in the genre of colonial literature and continues to be studied for its historical significance and literary merit.</p>...6995301Confessions of a Thug1919https://www.gandhi.com.mx/confessions-of-a-thug-9789361447037/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/6948697/image.jpg?v=638768858616970000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20249789361447037_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_<p>"Confessions of a Thug" is a novel written by Philip Meadows Taylor, first published in 1839.
