Podrobnosti o e‑knize

Metropolis by Thea von Harbou is a groundbreaking science fiction novel set in a futuristic city divided by extreme social inequality. In this vast and mechanized metropolis, the wealthy elite live in luxury above ground while workers toil endlessly below to sustain the city’s infrastructure. The story follows Freder, the son of the city’s powerful ruler, whose discovery of the workers’ harsh conditions leads him to question the moral foundation of his society and seek justice and unity.

Through visionary storytelling and powerful symbolism, von Harbou explores themes of social division, technological progress, human compassion, and the search for balance between power and humanity. The novel presents a compelling warning about the dangers of unchecked industrialization and the importance of empathy in bridging social divides. As both a thrilling narrative and a profound philosophical work, Metropolis remains a timeless classic of speculative fiction and social commentary.
