Zusammenfassung

In one of the first dystopian novels of the twentieth century, Robert Hugh Benson imagines a world where belief in God has been replaced by secular humanism. The narrative has been hailed as the finest work of this unsung, but influential, author whose conversion to Catholicism rocked the Church of England in 1903. Back in print for the first time in decades, it includes a new introduction, biography, and theological reflection.

Robert Hugh Benson (1871-1914) was an English Anglican priest who joined the Roman Catholic Church in 1903 and was ordained a Catholic priest in 1904. He was lauded in his own day as one of the leading figures in English literature and was the author of many novels and apologetic works.
