The fifth of Robert Hugh Benson's "mainstream" novels, first
published in 1914, "Initiation" relates a man's redemption, or
initiation into his full humanity, through pain. The novel explores
the different types of pain with which people are afflicted -
spiritual, psychological, and physical - none of it deserved, yet
all of it leading to greater self-awareness and understanding of
what it means to be human. Despite the grimness of the theme, the
novel is both entertaining and profound. This edition features a
foreword by Benson scholar Michael D. Greaney.
