Bag om Unrest

Unrest: Or The Newer Republic is a novel written by William Earl Hodgson in 1887. The story is set in an imaginary future where the United States of America has been transformed into a socialist state. The novel explores the consequences of this radical change, including the effects on individual freedom, social organization, and political power. The main character, a young man named John Strickland, struggles to navigate this new world and find his place in it. Along the way, he encounters a variety of characters who represent different aspects of the new society, including its leaders, intellectuals, and workers. As the story unfolds, Strickland becomes increasingly disillusioned with the socialist experiment and begins to question its underlying principles. The novel is a critique of socialism and a warning against the dangers of radical social change. It remains a fascinating and thought-provoking work of speculative fiction, offering insights into the social and political issues of its time and ours.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
