The Pilgrim’s Progress is a Christian allegory written by English Puritan writer John Bunyan in 1678. This seminal work, considered the first novel written in English, is comprised of two parts with no individual chapter divisions. The narrative itself is presented as a dream sequence wherein an omniscient narrator follows the protagonist Christian on his journey from the City of Destruction to the Celestial City. The Pilgrim’s Progress explores themes of faith, salvation, and appearances versus reality.
