THE BOMB IBD

Sinopse

''The Bomb'' is a novel written by Frank Harris, originally published in 1908. The story is set in London and centers around a young man named Jim Houghton, who becomes obsessed with the idea of creating a bomb that could destroy the city. Jim is a brilliant but troubled inventor who has been rejected by the scientific community due to his unconventional ideas. He becomes increasingly isolated and paranoid, convinced that the government and his former colleagues are out to get him. As Jim?s obsession with the bomb grows, he begins to attract the attention of a group of anarchists who see him as a potential ally in their fight against the establishment. However, Jim?s moral compass becomes increasingly distorted as he becomes more involved with the group, leading him down a dangerous path towards violence and destruction. The novel explores themes of alienation, radicalism, and the dangers of unchecked ambition. It is a gripping and thought-provoking read that offers a fascinating insight into the mindset of a troubled inventor on the brink of madness.But already when I thought of the trial I began to grow indignant, for strong as their case was I began to fear, and this was the heart of my fear. The police had already asserted that they had found bombs in Lingg?s rooms. I knew Lingg well enough to know that that was almost certainly untrue, he would never have implicated Ida in his crime. From the description of the place, too, where he had been captured, I knew that he had been trapped in his little carpenter?s workshop, and bombs would have been discovered there if anywhere.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
