{"product_id":"lord-of-the-world-9781781393048","title":"Lord of the World","description":"This visionary dystopian and apocalyptic novel of 1907 presents a future in which secular humanism has triumphed, with religion suppressed and almost non-existent. It follows the fortunes of an M.P. and his wife, who come under the sway of the antichrist figure, the titular Lord of the World, who appears to promise a heaven on earth, and a catholic priest, who is fighting to keep the Church alive through its many tribulations. It is highly readable and seems prescient on many counts - the rise of communist states, the advent of air travel and the dominating power of a forceful leader - but its strong Catholic bias has tended to limit its readership. This handsome new edition has been completely re-typeset to be clear and complete.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Benediction Classics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50650088079634,"sku":"9781781393048","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_d25ba030-92b5-4940-8814-02aacde97015.jpg?v=1766485640","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/lord-of-the-world-9781781393048","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
