More about the book
The narrative intertwines a personal spiritual crisis with a satirical critique of academic learning and Victorian values. Through the lens of a fictitious editor, the work explores the theories of a made-up German professor who argues that human institutions and morals are merely superficial coverings that protect us from existential emptiness, suggesting they can be altered with changing trends and societal whims.
