Father and Son
By Edmund Gosse
0 - Default Title
Description
Subtitled a study of two temperaments' Edmund Gosse's childhood memoir tells the often fractious often comic story of Gosse's relationship with his authoritarian father. A pioneering naturalist and marine biologist Philip Henry Gosse's strictly religious worldview is brought into crisis by the discoveries of Charles Darwin and the death of his wife - and Edmund's mother - Emily. As Edmund breaks away from his father's influence the evolution from one epoch to the next is described in all of its struggle humour and glory.
