Wrath may be described as inordinate and uncontrolled feelings of hatred and anger. These feelings can manifest as vehement denial of the truth, both to others and in the form of self-denial, impatience with the procedure of law, and the desire to seek revenge outside of the workings of the justice system (such as engaging in vigilantism) and generally wishing to do evil or harm to others. The transgressions borne of vengeance are among the most serious, including murder, assault, and in extreme cases, genocide. Wrath is the only sin not necessarily associated with selfishness or self interest (although one can of course be wrathful for selfish reasons, such as jealousy). Dante described vengeance as "love of justice perverted to revenge and spite".

Calm down! You are most guilty of the sin of anger. (Also known as wrath.) For whatever reason, you spurn love and embrace fury, often becoming annoyed with those around you and refusing to form relationships with people. In hell you will be dismembered alive as a consequence for your rage. To free yourself from this demise, try the heavenly virtue of kindness. Anger, in Latin Ira, is represented by the bear and color red.

“Gigolo” on the Row
Mark Sterling hopes that his shaky relationship with his wife will improve, despite the fact that he has ended a relationship with her, not by his choice.  When he loses her, he wonders how such a thing could have happened!  He is consoled by neighbors but finds out a new love in his life is brutishly beaten by her husband.  What does this have to do with his wife? 

The book and the sin . . .
Wrath is completely analyzed as a motivation for the fuel of murder and hatred but it is buried and not seen at first.  But that sin is not totally revealed—and it is skillfully—until the end when you literally don’t see the reality coming because there are so many red herrings along your way.  GIGOLO is a treasure.
