Publisher's Synopsis
The New Machiavelli is a novel written by H.G. Wells. The story follows the life of Richard Remington, a successful politician who is forced to resign from his position due to a scandal. After losing everything, including his wife and friends, Remington decides to start a new life and pursue his passion for writing. He moves to a small village and begins to write a book on politics and power, drawing inspiration from Niccol������ Machiavelli's The Prince. As he becomes more involved in the village's affairs, Remington realizes that the same principles of power and manipulation that he is writing about are being used by those around him. The novel explores themes of politics, power, morality, and the human condition. It is a thought-provoking and insightful work that offers a unique perspective on the nature of power and its impact on society.When I think of how such things began in my mind, there comes back to me the memory of an enormous bleak room with its ceiling going up to heaven and its floor covered irregularly with patched and defective oilcloth and a dingy mat or so and a ""surround"" as they call it, of dark stained wood. Here and there against the wall are trunks and boxes.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.
