The Pilgrim's Progress
The Pilgrim's Progress is a 1678 Christian allegory written by the Puritan preacher John Bunyan. Begun while Bunyan served a 12-year jail sentence for his nonconformist preaching, the novel unfolds over two parts, one concerning Christian, and the other his wife Christiana and their sons. Both concern the central characters’ ordeals in traveling from the worldly to the sublime, and are filled with allegorical characters with names like Hypocrisy and Prudence, and places like Plain Ease, and Doubting Castle. Considered one of the most significant works of religious English literature, it has been translated into more than 200 languages, and has never been out of print.

About the Author

John Bunyan (1628-1688) was an English writer and Puritan preacher best known for his Christian allegory The Pilgrim's Progress. After serving three years in the Parliamentary army during the English Civil War, he returned home, married and became interested in religion. He joined the Bedford Meeting, a nonconformist Puritan group in Bedford, and became a preacher. After the restoration of the monarchy, Bunyan spent twelve years in jail for refusing to give up preaching. During this time he began work on The Pilgrim's Progress. The Pilgrim's Progress has been translated into over 200 languages, has never gone out of print, and is considered by many to be the first English Novel.
