Why people recommend it
The Devil's Advocate by Percy Greg is a Victorian-era speculative novel exploring political and social themes. On an episode of Stuff They Don't Want You To Know titled The Luigi Mangione Story, Chapter Two: The Larger Context, released on January 10, 2025, Ben Bowlin discussed various cultural touchstones while exploring broader legal and historical contexts. During the conversation, Bowlin recommended checking out the work, though he briefly referenced a film adaptation and related courtroom drama scenes, such as those found in jury selection sequences, while connecting them to broader themes of justice and legal proceedings. Although the mention was brief and intertwined with references to cinematic portrayals of trials and the judicial system, the recommendation directed the audience's attention toward dramatic explorations of legal ethics and adversarial proceedings. Bowlin integrated the reference into a wider dialogue about societal rules, legal frameworks, and the complex historical narratives that continue to influence contemporary perceptions of crime, punishment, and institutional accountability within the modern legal landscape.
