Description
'I am the enfant terrible of literature and science. If I cannot and I know I cannot get the literary and scientific big-wigs to give me a shilling I can and I know I can heave bricks into the middle of them.' With The Way of All Flesh Samuel Butler threw a subversive brick at the smug face of Victorian domesticity. Published in 1903 a year after Butler's death the novel is a thinly disguised account of his own childhood and youth 'in the bosom of a Christian family'. With irony wit and sometimes rancour he savaged contemporary values and beliefs turning inside-out the conventional novel of a family's life through several generations.
