| Summary | "The Prophet's Mantle" by E. Nesbit and Hubert Bland is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around Count Michael Litvinoff, a nobleman in Russia who grapples with the conflicts between his aristocratic background and his passion for social reform. Following his return to Russia, he befriends an English secretary, Armand Percival, and together they navigate a world rife with political struggle, personal dilemmas, and the pursuit of freedom. At the start of the narrative, we witness Count Litvinoff's complex character as he reflects on the oppressive political climate of Russia and his commitment to social justice. After a harrowing encounter where he saves another man from committing suicide, he forms a deep bond with Percival, who subsequently assists him in his literary and revolutionary pursuits. The urgency of their situation amplifies when they face the threat of arrest due to Litvinoff's controversial writings, leading them on a tense escape from the authorities. The opening sets the stage for a richly woven tale of friendship, politics, and the quest for identity amidst turmoil. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
