If one would investigate whether a redemptive state can be found in author Jeremy Williams’ memoir, Push Nevahda and the Vicious Circle: scenes from a random life, it can perhaps be located in the confessional style and tone of the narrative itself. Williams’ style provokes readers while influencing feelings of intimacy, connectivity, and a longing to save and find ways to participate in the redemption of Nevahda. The style alone forces the readers to see the need for redemption, given the abrasive, exploitative sexual promiscuity, or the recurrent childhood nightmares of molestation, while simultaneously trying to deal with the recent death of his mother. The confessional is the space at which the sinner let’s go of his wrongdoings to liberate himself (almost like word vomit), ranting or releasing contents of one’s actions or reactions in ways that free man from himself while setting him away from them. But while the author pushes out the experience, we devour it and his redemption becomes our responsibility. In the case of Nevahda, finding redemption moves beyond the acts of sexual promiscuity or childhood molestation, for there is racial redemption that he is after, as well as religious redemption and religious deconstruction.
