The Secular Pilgrims of Victorian Fiction: The Novel as Book of Life
Barry V. Qualls
This book examines the attempts of four great Victorians to write what amounted to latter-day 'Pilgrim's Progresses'. Writing in and for an age whose spiritual needs and assumptions differed utterly from those of Bunyan, they produced very different kinds of books; 'Pilgrim's Progresses' whose heroes must write their own guidebooks, their own books of life.
