Pilgrim's Progress is a wise allegory from John Bunyan, impressive literary work !!
13 February 2020
John Bunyan's novel wrote at Baresfordshire's prison under the bridge for long eleven years, he was put in jail as heresy without a proper trial by the Church the book became a best seller, today remains his valuable literary work, John Bunyan's book influence many eggheads on the late 17th century, The Pilgrim's progress was one most challenger and influential book at it's time telling a metaphor or allegory through a suppose journey of a Pilgrim, who left the city of destruction with his heavy burden to the Celestial city, on the way he will meet with several characters as the Pliable as a name spoke by himself, the Devil disguise in many character to swerve him as Wiseman, Mr. Legality and so on, however advised by good characters as Evangelist and Goodwill, travelling through Swamps, narrow ways he reach at Jesus, after that he can left behind his heavy burden at last, now he becomes Christian, he is no longer is called Pilgrim, after others short cuts he learns that has just on way to reach to The Celestial City, the straight one, sadly the picture is too short and compress all book in just 72 minutes and didn't got pass the entire meaning of the book, aside it be an allegory is quite sure a strong subliminal message for those who get read the John Bunyan's masterpiece!!
