The Holy Terror (Wells Novel)
''The Holy Terror'' is a 1939 work by H. G. Wells that is in part an analysis of fascism and in part a utopian novel. Plot summary ''The Holy Terror'' presents itself as a biography of Rudolf "Rud" Whitlow, who is born with such an aggressive temperament that scarcely is he born but his monthly nurse exclaims: "It's a Holy Terror!" Rud Whitlow goes on to become the founder of the first world state, long a Wellsian dream. ''The Holy Terror'' is divided into four books. The events of Book One take place in the recognizable recent English past, although Wells warns that "Every person, place and thing in this story—even the countries in which it happens—are fictitious . . . The England, the America, the London in this book are not the England, America and London of geography and journalism, but England, America, and London transposed into imaginative narrative." The novel even takes a futuristic turn and the action of the novel extends into the early 1950s. Book O ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
