Reading A Thief in the Night | Alexandria
Read A Thief in the Night by E. W. Hornung. Mastering the art of sympathetic crime through A.E.W. Hornung's gentlemanly thief Raffles flips Victorian morality on its head. This cunning tale blurs the lines between hero and villain, asking if breaking the law can be justified when done with style, wit, and a peculiar sense of honor. Its bold suggestion that criminality and nobility can coexist still challenges our assumptions about justice and morality.
