Publicada póstumamente en 1903, esta novela semiautobiográfica de Samuel Butler es una mordaz sátira de la hipocresía de la era victoriana. La obra narra la historia de cinco generaciones de la familia Pontifex, centrándose en Ernest Pontifex y su lucha por desafiar las expectativas familiares y las normas sociales en busca de su propia libertad personal. Considerada una de las obras maestras de la literatura inglesa del siglo XX, la novela explora temas de desarrollo personal y crítica social. Esta edición en tapa dura de Sahara Publisher Books presenta el texto íntegro de una obra que, en su momento, fue vista como un ataque directo a los valores burgueses de la Inglaterra eduardiana.
Samuel Butler was an English novelist and critic, best known for the satirical utopian novel Erewhon (1872) and the semi-autobiographical novel The Way of All Flesh. Both novels have remained in print since their initial publication. In other studies he examined Christian orthodoxy, evolutionary thought, and Italian art, and made prose translations of the Iliad and Odyssey that are still consulted.
