The Inheritors

More about the book

Set against the backdrop of early 20th-century societal change, this quasi-science fiction novel explores the clash between traditional values and modern expediency. Through the metaphor of the "fourth dimension," it examines how a new generation, driven by self-interest, dismantles the old aristocratic order. The story follows an aspiring writer who undergoes a parallel transformation, grappling with feelings of loss as he navigates the corrupting influences of power and the shifting moral landscape.
