Excerpt from The Saturday Evening Post, Vol. 182: September 25, 1909
A woman, sickle on arm, leading a toddling child, passed by with averted head. But she curtsied and said respectfully: Good-'evening, your honor. The child looked at him and with a cry of fear shrank into the mother's skirts. Jeremy touched his hat.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the career of J eremy Wendover, a man born in the 18th century with a facial disfigurement so severe that he was shunned throughout his early life. Based on the author's examination of Wendover's diary, the story primarily focuses on Wendover's personal experiences. Raised in a world that valued physical beauty, Wendover's deep faith led him to seek solace away from society, where he cultivated an interest in literature and the natural world. The book explores the themes of loneliness, love, and faith in the face of personal adversity. By primarily focusing on the hardships that Wendover faced due to his disfigurement and society's reaction to it, the book serves as a meditation not only on Wendover's struggle but also on the moral and ethical obligations of society towards those it deems as different.
