Sybil

Sybil is political novel in which the flamboyancy of a grandiose political imagination, high idealism and exhibitionist dandyism are oddly combined. The novel reflects Tory romanticism. Benjamin Disraeli wrote this novel to tackle the 'condition of England question'. The novel embodies his vision of a Young England restored to an organic national wholeness and freed from the disintegrating effects of Whig economic individualism and lack of tradition.
