The Confessions of Nat Turner is a 1967 Pulitzer Prize-winning novel by American writer William Styron.

It is based on The Confessions of Nat Turner: The Leader of the Late Insurrection in Southampton, Virginia, a first-hand account of Turner's confessions published by a local lawyer, Thomas R. Gray, in 1831.[1]
