Om denne boken

"The Voyage of Captain Popanilla" by Benjamin Disraeli is a satirical novel published in 1828. When Popanilla discovers books washed ashore on his idyllic island, he becomes obsessed with "progress" and development. Banished for his revolutionary ideas, he voyages to the supposedly civilized nation of Vraibleusia, where he encounters economic absurdities, bizarre customs, and a patched-up talking statue that controls the stock market. This allegorical fantasy, influenced by Swift's "Gulliver's Travels," lampoons contemporary British society, including colonial ambitions and economic policies.
