About this audiobook
"Of Blades and Bladery" by H. G. Wells is a short essay. H. G. Wells once different, humorous social satire and ironic.
The Blade is not so much a culture as a temperament, and Bladery-if the thing may have the name-a code of sentiments rather than a ritual. It is the rococo school of behaviour, the flamboyant gentleman, the gargoyle life.
