Erewhon Revisited: Twenty Years Later Both by the Original Discoverer of the Country and by His Son

Erewhon Revisited: Twenty Years Later Both by the Original Discoverer of the Country and by His Son is a novel written by Samuel Butler, first published in 1901. It is a sequel to his earlier work Erewhon (1872), which was a satirical novel that explored themes of religion, society, and the nature of humanity through the fictional country of Erewhon.

In Erewhon Revisited, Butler returns to the fictional land of Erewhon, and the novel functions as a satirical critique of Victorian society. It blends elements of travel narrative, philosophical discourse, and social commentary, all while continuing Butler’s exploration of the complex relationships between human nature, institutions, and the state.
