In the story,"The Case for the Defence," how is divine vengeance shown?

Divine vengeance is the main essence of the uncanny
classic, "The Case for the Defence", by Graham
Greene.


Initially, in the story, Greene presents forth
that at least one of the Adams are certainly the murderers. This
can be understood clearly by the number of evidences (witnesses), and the manner of
writing of Greene. The scene yet plays loopholes and ultimately both the Adams escape
without any of them held guilty. This is certainly against the “DIVINE
JUSTICE”. It is obvious that when things get beyond the hands of we
mortals, the spiritual Lord does justice
. After the twins escape human
justice, one of them ends up being killed by a bus. This is not elaborate to any great
extent as it gives the story a sinister appeal. Hence, to answer your question, this is
a clear cut example of divine vengeance.


Hope sum of it is
applied to our politicians :)

Excellent observation, as it identifies how the settings of Poe's stories reflect the characters of their protagonists. Whet...
