Written by Hilaire Belloc

Narrated by Digital Voice Marcus G

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.

In the ever-widening chasm between rich and poor, a chilling prophecy emerges. "The Servile State," not of whips and chains, but of subtle control, looms large. Hilaire Belloc, a voice of reason amidst the rising din, cuts through the facade of prosperity to expose the insidious threat. Where does ownership concentrate power? Can reform truly liberate, or does it merely tighten the chains? Belloc's visionary critique unveils a future precariously balanced, urging us to confront the true cost of progress before it's too late.

Hilaire Belloc

Hilaire Belloc was born in France in 1870. As a child, he moved with his mother and siblings to England. As a French citizen, he did his military service in France before going to Oxford University, where he was president of the Union debating society. He took British citizenship in 1902 and was a member of parliament for several years. A prolific and versatile writer of over 150 books, he is best remembered for his comic and light verse. But he also wrote extensively about politics, history, nature and contemporary society. Famously adversarial, he is remembered for his long-running feud with H. G. Wells. He died in in Surrey, England, in 1953.
