Annotation | The novel is set in a religious community in British Guiana, the Brethren of Christ the Man, which can be considered a flawed utopia. The religion is open and treats Christ as a model rather than in any sense supernatural, but the treatment of the people in the community, particularly the natives, is both liberal and very cruel. |
