About this book
Dedicated to John Ruskin, this 1879 book by W. H. Mallock, author of The New Republic, takes up the question in its title. Mallock was a young writer of the period, and his dedication says the arguments are plain ones that he gathered together rather than discovered.
The title page carries two epigraphs from the Bible on the vanity of human life and a Greek line from Paul's letter to the Romans. The book was printed in New York by Putnam. It reads as a work of philosophy and religious thought, aimed at doubt about whether life has any worth.
