Produced by Steven desJardins and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "The Strange Story of Rab Ráby" by Mór Jókai is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative centers around Mathias Ráby, a young Hungarian nobleman, who confronts the injustices faced by the common people during the reign of Emperor Joseph II. As Ráby navigates the corruption in his town, he seeks to bring about change and justice while facing opposition from both the political elite and societal norms. At the start of the story, the scene is set in Pesth, Hungary, during a time of societal upheaval. The opening chapters introduce us to the oppressive judicial system and the arbitrary punishments meted out by corrupt officials. Readers are introduced to various characters, including Ráby himself, who is portrayed as someone genuinely concerned for the plight of the oppressed. The narrative offers a vivid depiction of life during this historical period, as Ráby becomes determined to address the injustices he witnesses. This sets the stage for both personal and political conflicts that ultimately shape his quest for truth and justice.
