Summary "Kuninkaitten kuningas" by H. G. Wells is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows the life of Albert Edward Preemby, a former laundry owner and widower, as he navigates his existence in a changing world filled with societal shifts and personal trials. The narrative blends elements of modernity and history, showcasing Preemby’s relationships, particularly with women, as he grapples with his dreams and the expectations placed upon him. The opening of the story introduces us to Preemby's life as he steps away from the laundry business after his wife’s death, reflecting on his past and the peculiar events that have shaped his life leading to 1920. The narrative explores his early years, his serious yet whimsical nature, and his interactions with characters like Christina Hossett and Meeta Pinkey, which foreshadow the complex dynamics of love, ambition, and societal roles he will encounter. In these initial chapters, Wells lays the foundation for Preemby's development as he embarks on his journey, hinting at the challenges and transformations that await him within the tapestry of the early 20th century society.
