| Summary | "Conscience — Volume 2" by Hector Malot is a psychological novel likely written in the late 19th century. The narrative revolves around the protagonist, Saniel, who is haunted by his thoughts and plans concerning a deadly act he is contemplating involving a character named Caffie. As he grapples with the moral implications of his intentions, his psychological state and mental conflicts are explored in depth, presenting a rich tableau of his internal dilemmas. At the start of the volume, we see Saniel awaken from a restless sleep, distracted and disturbed by the presence of a knife, which he associates with his dark plan to murder Caffie. He meticulously goes through the steps of carrying out his deed, weighing the risks and internalizing the complexities of human behavior and conscience. There is an acute focus on his psychological shift from contemplation to action, illustrating the tension between desire and morality. Throughout this opening section, themes of fear, determination, and the quest for personal justification unfold, setting a gripping stage for the unraveling consequences of Saniel's choices.
