Society power and ambition drawn by a statesman; bright satire with political nerve.
1804 – 1881 · United Kingdom | 2 books | Popular now: Sybil, or the Two Nations
Benjamin Disraeli was a British politician who twice served as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom.
He was also a novelist, publishing works of fiction even as prime minister.
Benjamin Disraeli turns salons and chambers into one stage. Image and policy wrestle in witty chapters that still ask what a nation wants from leaders. The critique is sharp but never sour. Read him to weigh spectacle against substance and to enjoy style that knows what institutions cost and can do.
