Description
About the Book VALLEY OF JUDGMENT is a tragic play that finds its root in the daily condig man in the society, fin nis reaction to the pulling factors in the eternal struggle between the forces of Good and Evil. It is an allegorical drama in which virtues and vices are personified and act like real people but in such and only a manner that maintains and reflects their definition and essence. Corruption (both moral levity and financial fraud) is a tree founded on the roots of greed, dishonesty, contempt, disregard, lust, avarice, unfaithfulness and ignorance. As a tree bears fruits that are exposed to the benefits of many, so does corruption bear negative fruits that are poisonous to the civility of the society. Fruits such as poverty, dissension, strife, inequality, dissatisfaction, diseases, hunger, robbery etc. the roots remain the same.
