About this ebook
Samuel Butler's 'Erewhon Revisited Twenty Years Later, Both by the Original Discoverer of the Country and by His Son' is a thought-provoking sequel to his original satirical novel 'Erewhon.' In this book, Butler revisits the fictional land of Erewhon, exploring how the society has evolved over the course of two decades. The novel is filled with philosophical musings, social commentary, and witty observations, making it a compelling read for those interested in utopian/dystopian literature. Butler's writing style is captivating, blending humor with serious reflection on human nature and societal structures. The book is a reflection of Butler's own disillusionment with Victorian society and his exploration of alternative societal models. Through the characters of the original discoverer and his son, Butler presents contrasting perspectives on progress, technology, and the nature of civilization. I highly recommend 'Erewhon Revisited' to readers who appreciate thought-provoking literature that challenges conventional norms and stimulates intellectual discourse.
