Erewhon Revisited

Samuel Butler was an English novelist, essayist, and critic whose works foreshadowed the collapse of the Victorian illusion of eternal progress. Butler belonged to no literary school, and spawned no followers during his lifetime. His controversial assertions shut him out from both of the opposing factions of church and science which played such a large role in late Victorian cultural life.
"Erewhon Revisited" is a satirical novel, forming a belated sequel to the "Erewhon". The main hero - Higgs decides to head back to Erewhon. Returning home he discovers that place is entirely unrecognizable due to new religion - sunchildism.In this novel the author reveals his long interest in Darwin's theories of biological evolution, though he had spent a great deal of time criticizing him. A book will definitely appeal to the readers looking for entertaining and ridiculous story!
