Mr. Prohack' is a novel by Arnold Bennett, best remembered today for his novels 'Anna of the Five Towns', 'The Old Wives' Tale', and 'Clayhanger'. 'Mr. Prohack' is a book about a man who bears the same name as the title of this novel-Mr. Arthur Prohack. He is a government official who received a windfall that elevated his family's position from middle class to upper. Of course, more money does not always mean less problems-and in Mr. Prohack's case, in particular, an avalanche of problems awaits.
