An engrossing collection of literary essays, The New Spirit was Havelock Ellis’s first book. In it he attempts to trace “the modern spirit” through the works of five great writers—Diderot, Heine, Whitman, Ibsen, and Tolstoy. Controversial when published, the book remains essential reading for anyone interested in Ellis’s early work and philosophy.
