The Making of a Prig is a novel written by Evelyn Sharp in 1897. The story follows the life of a young girl named Rachel West, who is raised in a strict and religious household. Rachel is taught to be virtuous, obedient, and to uphold the strict moral standards of her community. As she grows older, Rachel becomes increasingly self-righteous and judgmental, looking down on those who do not share her values. Despite her rigid beliefs, Rachel begins to question her upbringing and the values she has been taught. She becomes friends with a group of artists and intellectuals who challenge her beliefs and broaden her perspective on the world. Through her experiences with this group, Rachel learns to embrace her individuality and reject the narrow-mindedness of her upbringing. The Making of a Prig is a coming-of-age story that explores themes of conformity, individuality, and the struggle to find one's place in the world. Sharp's writing is insightful and thought-provoking, offering a nuanced portrayal of the complexities of growing up in a society that values conformity above all else. The novel is a timeless classic that continues to resonate with readers today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
