George Meredith

"The war between the sexes and the generations, myths of Eden and Utopia, and the psychology of sexual jealousy and repression are explored by Meredith in this novel. The Ordeal of Richard Feverel (1859) concerns Sir Austin Feverel's misconceived attempts to educate his son Richard according to a system of his own devising. Embodied in Sir Austin's anonymously published The Pilgrim's Scrip are his theories of sexual restraint which find little favour with Richard."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
