E-text prepared by MRK
"Nobody's Man" by E. Phillips Oppenheim is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around Andrew Tallente, a once-prominent political figure who has recently faced defeat in an election, compounded by personal turmoil within his marriage. As Tallente grapples with the remnants of his political ambitions and his complicated relationships, the narrative explores themes of betrayal, social dynamics, and the transformative challenges of a changing political landscape. At the start of the book, Andrew Tallente arrives at a quaint Devonshire station, feeling a mix of weariness and apprehension as he unexpectedly encounters James Miller, a rival Socialist MP. Tallente's disappointment in losing his parliamentary seat is evident, and his interactions with his wife, Stella, suggest a fragile marriage overshadowed by unmet ambitions. As he settles into the eerie serenity of their country home, Tallente's internal struggles become increasingly palpable, foreshadowing a deeper conflict. The initial chapters set the stage for a complex narrative where political intrigue and personal relationships intertwine, offering a window into the protagonist's quest for identity and purpose in a world that seems increasingly indifferent to his past glories.
