One of Our Conquerors (1891) is undoubtedly the most challenging of his books to read, because of its metaphors, extended sections of internal monologue, and indirect and cryptic writing.

Produktbeschreibung
One of Our Conquerors (1891) is undoubtedly the most challenging of his books to read, because of its metaphors, extended sections of internal monologue, and indirect and cryptic writing. A book about an empire called One of our conquerors explains colonization, finance, and psychology on a vast scale. "One of Our Conquerors" is arguably one of George Meredith's smarter novels. However, it is worth reading the book because it tells the tale of Victor Radnor, a successful businessman and one of the "pillars of society," who began a happy marriage. Meredith, a brilliant psychologist, focused on the conundrum of the hero's exterior well-being and his awareness of his moral insignificance. Readers will have a memorable reading experience and plenty of food for thought after reading the fantastic and dramatic story!

Autorenporträt
George Meredith OM (February 12, 1828-May 18, 1909) was born in Portsmouth, United Kingdom. He was an English poet, writer, and author, whose books are noted for their intelligence, extraordinary dialogues, and aphoristic way of writing. Meredith's books are also recognised for psychological studies of character and a highly subjective perspective on life that is a long way ahead of its time, considering women are equals to men in all streams. His most popular works are The Ordeal of Richard Feverel (1859) and The Egoist (1879). He was nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature seven times.
