Lord of the World

Set in a future dominated by secular humanism, the narrative explores the struggles of an M.P. and his wife as they are drawn into the influence of a charismatic antichrist figure, the Lord of the World, while a Catholic priest endeavors to preserve the Church amidst adversity. The novel's foresight regarding political and technological changes enhances its relevance, though its strong Catholic perspective may limit its audience. Pope Francis praises its prophetic insights on contemporary issues, making it a thought-provoking read in this newly re-typeset edition.
