Doctor Jones' Picnic by S. E. Chapman
A romance that transcends the ordinary rules of fiction to broach the deep things of God, following the marvelous cures of the worthy Dr. Jones toward the very Millennium.
S. E. Chapman's 1898 novel blends science, utopian speculation, and religious visionary fervor in an earnest late-Victorian scientific romance. Ambitious, idiosyncratic, of its era. Read it for a curious 1890s tale where medical wonders open onto grand dreams of humanity's redemption.
