Written in 1911, The Card is Bennett’s brilliantly funny short novel that chronicles the rise of the ever-optimistic Edward Henry (‘Denry’) Machin from washerwoman’s son to Mayor of Bursley through luck, initiative and wit, and his greatest asset—a talent for “cheering up” people.
Despre autor
Arnold Bennett (1867–1931) was a British writer whose prolific output included numerous works of fiction and nonfiction, literary criticism as well as theatre journalism, an opera, and a screenplay. English novelist Margaret Drabble says of him, “Bennett’s books I think are very fine indeed, on the highest level, deeply moving… I feel they have been underrated.”
