A thinly disguised autobiographical novel The Way of All Flesh is a powerful critique of late Victorian beliefs and values. It tells of several generations of the Pontifex family with Ernest son of hypocritical and domineering parents at the center of its narrative. After a disastrous career in the church culminating in a spell in prison Ernest goes on to find his own way in the world rejecting both Christianity and the strictures imposed by his family.The book’s attack on the domestic religious and sexual hypocrisy of its time caused the author to delay its publication. However later authors praised the novel with George Orwell observing that ‘He would say things that other people knew but didn’t dare to say’ and A.A. Milne describing it as the ‘second- best novel in the English language’.PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.
