As readers, we are seldom interested in the fine sentiments of a lesson learnt; we seldom care about the good manners of morals. Repentance puts an end to conversation; forgiveness becomes the stuff of moralistic tracts. Revenge – bloodthirsty, justice-hungry revenge – is the very essence of romance, lying at the heart of much of the best fiction.
