Describing instead the progress of the wicked Mr Badman through the world to his death and damnation, this book sets out a dialogue between two earnest gentlemen - Mr Attentive and Mr Wiseman.
"The Life and Death of Mr Badman" was published by John Bunyan in 1680, two years after the "The Pilgrim's Progress". He intended it to be a companion piece to the story of Pilgrim's journey to heaven, describing instead the progress of the wicked Mr Badman through the world to his death and damnation. Set out as a dialogue between two earnest gentlemen - Mr Attentive and Mr Wiseman - Bunyan's work is a colourful and dramatic discourse on the various vices of a bad man's life.

"A dandy version . . . [It] has the virtue of containing all of the marginal glosses from the original edition. It also sports a brief and engaging foreword by James Fenton." --"Times Literary Supplement"  Be the first to write a customer review
