This work has been described as the quintessence of its author's commonsense philosophy. It wages war on all extremes, on all shams and pretenses - above all those of which the pretenders are unconscious - on all attempts to take either life or death too seriously. It is full of faintly bitter irony, which the author turns on occasion against himself as well as his victims. A wonderful, close-up of mid-Victorian England. Thoughtful, historical, collectible.
