About This Book

Un recueil d'essais satiriques qui analyse la pudibonderie et l'hypocrisie de la société anglaise, opposant apparences respectables et comportements privés. L'auteur observe le strict cérémonial social, la censure du langage amoureux, et les contraintes de genre et de classe qui dissimulent vice et misère. À travers anecdotes, portraits et ironie mordante, il critique le rôle de la morale publique, des institutions religieuses et des conventions sociales qui protègent l'apparence au détriment de la vérité. Le ton combine pamphlet et reportage moral pour exposer contradictions et hypocrisie.
