Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book, first published in 1898, offers a satirical portrayal of hypocrisy in Victorian society. Set against the backdrop of Oxford University, the author paints a picture of a world where appearances are everything and morality is negotiable. The protagonist, Yardly Gobion, is a young man who uses his charm and intelligence to exploit the weaknesses of others, all the while maintaining a façade of righteousness. As the story unfolds, Gobion's true nature is gradually revealed, and the consequences of his actions become increasingly dire. Through its exploration of themes such as deceit, ambition, and the corrupting influence of power, this book provides a timeless and thought-provoking examination of human behavior.
