Samuel Butler 23327

De weg van alle vlees

Uitgeverij G.A. Van Oorschot B.V. 2012. Paperback. De roman neemt een aanvang drie generaties voor de geboorte van de hoofdpersoon Ernest Pontifex, bij overgrootvader John. Diens enige zoon George kan goed leren en wordt op zijn vijftiende ingelijfd bij de religieuze uitgeverij van een oom in Londen, waar hij zich als gewiekst zakenman ontpopt en later alles erft. George's jongste zoon Theobald, het tegendeel van een veelbelovende zakenman, moet dan maar dominee worden, vooraf te gaan door het behalen van een doctorstitel aan Cambridge. Datzelfde lot wacht Theobalds oudste zoon Ernest, die vanaf de wieg gebukt gaat onder een agressieve, verbitterde maar buiten de deur o zo rechtschapen vader. In deze geschiedenis, verteld door de peetvader van de held, worden de bedenkelijke motieven, uitingen en gedragingen van de meeste betrokkenen met bijtende spot neergezet, opgeluisterd door hilarische innerlijke monologen. De roman The Way of All Flesh werd in 1998 door de grote Amerikaanse uitgever Modern Library gerangschikt als twaalfde op de lijst van 100 beste Engelstalige romans van de twintigste eeuw. ISBN: 9789028241947. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed.
