As_For_Me_and_My_House

As For Me and My House "As For Me and My House" is a very complex novel by Sinclair Ross. The novel is told to the reader as journal recordings of Mrs. Bentley. The main character consist in the journal are Mrs. Bentley's husband Philip, a school teacher Paul, choir girl in church Judith and abandon child Steve. Because the story is told as a journal, so everything is in a view through Mrs. Bentley's eyes and is in her point of view. The setting of the story is in a small town Horizon located in the Canadian prairies. The novel opens the Bentleys arrival to Horizon. This is the fourth small town to which Philip has been moved. Being a Minister was not easy, they have to face the community's stereotypes. The things they do would be monitor by the towns people, that is why the Bentley would put on a false font to give the town's people an impression that they are traditional Christians or the image that the people wants to see.
