The Pilgrim's Progress tells the story of everyman hero Christian as he abandons this world- the City of Destruction - on a journey towards the paradise and the Celestial City. As he travels, Christian must fight off the temptations of the Worldly Wise, the Vain and the Ignorant. His adventure takes him through the Slough of Despond, the Hill of Difficulty and the Valley of the Shadow of Death. John Bunyan's powerful, imaginative narrative is the most widely read and influential religious allegory ever written.
