Butler, Samuel Erewhon and Erewhon Revisited MODERN LIBRARY # 136 New York The Modern Library 1927 Reprint Edition Hard Cover Very Good No Jacket MODERN LIBRARY # 136 Intro by Lewis Mumford "Erewhon, which was originally published anonymously, is a satirical romance of the experiences of a traveller who discovers an imaginary community ('Erewhon' ='Nowhere'). The descriptions of the country are based on a remote part of New Zealand, where Butler spent a few years as a young man. The book is the vehicle for Butler's very original ideas, such as the analogies between crime and disease and between evolution of the organs of our bodies and that of tools and machines outside our bodies. In the sequel, Erewhon Revisited, the original discoverer's son revisits the country, and the theological polemic of the first book is continued in vivid narrative, satire, and humour."

Butler, Samuel The Way of All Flesh Garden City New York International Collectors Library 1964 Leatherette Fine No Jacket INTERNATIONAL COLLECTORS LIBRARY ``Butler died in 1902 & Flesh was published in 1903 (20 years after it was written). "Samuel Butler (4 or 5 December 1835 - 18 June 1902) was an iconoclastic Victorian author who published a variety of works. Two of his most famous pieces are the Utopian satire Erewhon and the posthumous novel The Way of All Flesh. He is also known for examining Christian orthodoxy, substantive studies of evolutionary thought, studies of Italian art, and works of literary history and criticism. Butler also made prose translations of The Iliad and The Odyssey which remain in use to this day. His influence on literature, such as it was, came through The Way of All Flesh, which Butler completed in the 1880s but left unpublished in order to protect his family. And yet the novel, begun in 1870 and not touched after 1885, was so modern when it was published in 1903, that it may be said to have started a new school, particularly in the use of psychoanalytical modes of thought in fiction, which "his treatment of Ernest Pontifex [the hero of Butler's novel] foreshadows."
