Life goes on for Morgan Murrenmaw, although he thinks that he'd probably be much happier if it didn't. He's more than ready to give up and give in.

His girlfriend Beatrice was seduced away by another man, and she clearly isn't coming back. All she's left Morgan with is yet another item to add to the long list of the wrongs that he feels have been committed against him throughout his wretched life.

He's ready to point the finger of blame at anybody; his ex, her new fella, the Devil, or even God Almighty...

...in fact, anybody other than himself. He couldn't possibly be to blame, could he?

The Devil agrees. The Holy Spirit, however, has other plans.

Murrenmaw 2 directly continues the story of Morgan's earthly and spiritual trials from Andrew Morris's avant-garde novel, Murrenmaw.

This fictional work tackles mature topics, and features characters that use strong language which might offend.
