Is Life Worth Living?
William Hurrell Mallock
Mallock inscribed his answer to John Ruskin and braced for the storm. Is Life Worth Living takes the question at full seriousness, examining what happens to life's value when old certainties fade and nothing solid replaces them. A famous Victorian provocation, argued with style and nerve. The question behind every other question, faced without flinching.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
