More about the book

Set in a near-future London that mirrors G.K. Chesterton's early 20th-century society, this novel explores themes of governance and identity through an impersonal government led by a randomly chosen figurehead king. The absence of technological advancements and unchanged social attitudes highlights a whimsical yet critical view of modernity. The story delves into the implications of a stagnant society, where the characters navigate a world that feels both familiar and oddly disconnected from progress.
