A Righteous Man

In Tochi Onyebuchi's thought-provoking short story, "A Righteous Man," a British missionary named Nathaniel faces a deep crisis of faith while attempting to educate a West African village about God's benevolence amidst the encroachment of slavers. Confronted by harsh realities that challenge his beliefs and purpose, Nathaniel experiences a profound spiritual upheaval as he grapples with the complexities of good and evil. This narrative is part of the collection "Trespass," which explores themes of survival, human folly, and the animal instincts within us all.
