Caleb Williams - Things as They Are - William Godwin Godwin

Godwin is one of the first exponents of utilitarianism and modern minarchist philosophy. His two most famous works are An Enquiry concerning Political Justice and Things as They Are: The Adventures of Caleb Williams. Caleb Williams is the first mystery novel in which the aristocratic lifestyle is attacked. Caleb is the secretary to a Squire. He unearths a terrible secret and though he has sworn secrecy the squire is not content to leave it alone. The suspense of watching a good man being relentlessly pursued by a powerful and angry man fills this novel.
