Summary | "The Soul of a Bishop" by H. G. Wells is a novel written in the early 20th century that delves into the life and internal struggles of a bishop as he grapples with personal and theological dilemmas. The story centers around the main character, the Bishop of Princhester, who confronts his faith, the demands of his position, and the societal upheavals surrounding him, including labor strife and family issues. At the start of the novel, readers are introduced to the bishop as he experiences a tumultuous dream about a heated theological debate, which sets the stage for his increasing doubts regarding his beliefs and duties. The opening describes his insomnia and the mental fatigue that results from trying to reconcile his faith with modern existential questions. As he reflects on his past decisions and his current struggles, we see a man at odds with his identity and role in a changing society, who feels pressured by both external expectations and personal convictions. It becomes clear that his journey will explore the evolution of faith in a contemporary context, alongside the complexities of family and social responsibility.
