Pomfret: Or, Public Opinion and Private Judgement

By Henry Fothergill Chorley

"Pomfret; Or, Public Opinion and Private Judgement" by Henry Fothergill Chorley, offers a sharp social commentary steeped in the nuances of 19th-century British society. Chorley, known for his critical essays and literary acumen, crafts a narrative that delves into the complex interplay between societal expectations and individual autonomy. The novel explores the suffocating power of public opinion and its capacity to shape, and often distort, personal judgment. Through vivid characters and intricate plotlines, "Pomfret" presents a satirical yet poignant reflection on the Victorian era, examining the constraints imposed by social norms and the struggle for authentic self-expression. This work remains a valuable piece of literary history, providing insight into the social and moral fabric of its time.
