O ovoj e-knjizi
Kenelm Chillingly is the son of noble parents, but he doesn't seem to quite fit in. Too philosophical for his own good, really. His father feels he should embark on a Grand Tour, but while his father is making formal preparations to do so, Kenelm sets out on his own, and the bulk of the books talk of his adventures and the people he meets along the way. He who scoffs at love eventually falls in it, and it really changes him. (Goodreads)
O autoru
Baron Edward Bulwer Lytton (1803-1873) was a multifaceted Victorian figure whose literary and political careers left an indelible mark on 19th-century England. Born into an aristocratic family, Lytton's early life was marred by personal tragedy, including the death of his father and a tumultuous relationship with his mother. Despite these challenges, he emerged as a prolific writer, producing works across various genres, including novels, plays, and poetry.Lytton's literary contributions are vast and varied, with his novel "The Last Days of Pompeii" becoming a cultural touchstone. He is credited with coining phrases that have permeated the English language, such as "the pen is mightier than the sword" and "it was a dark and stormy night." His ability to blend historical settings with romantic and gothic elements captivated readers and influenced contemporaries like Charles Dickens and Wilkie Collins.However, Lytton's life was not without controversy. His marriage to Rosina Doyle Wheeler was notoriously unhappy, leading to a public and acrimonious separation that scandalized Victorian society. Politically, Lytton was a staunch conservative, serving as Secretary of State for the Colonies and playing a pivotal role in the administration of British India.Lytton's revolutionary ideas extended beyond politics; he was deeply interested in the occult and spiritualism, themes that permeated his later works and intrigued a society fascinated by the supernatural. His exploration of esoteric subjects and his forward-thinking approach to social issues, such as women's rights and education, positioned him as a complex and often contradictory figure.In sum, Edward Bulwer Lytton was a literary giant whose influence extended far beyond his written words, shaping the cultural and political landscape of his time and leaving a legacy that continues to intrigue modern readers.
