Meer over het boek

Set in the fictional utopia of Erewhon, the story follows Higgs as he navigates a society that challenges the ideals of reason and rationality. Encountering bizarre customs, such as punishing illness and revering machines, he uncovers the darker side of this seemingly perfect world. The novel critiques Victorian values, delving into themes of science, individuality, and the limitations of rational thought. Samuel Butler's satirical narrative remains a thought-provoking exploration of societal norms and human nature.
