Summary | "Electro-episoded in A.D. 2025" by E. D. Skinner is a science fiction novel written in the early 20th century. The story is set in a futuristic world, specifically the year 2025, where advanced technologies seamlessly blend with everyday life. The narrative likely revolves around themes of social commentary and humor, as suggested by the publisher's note highlighting the inclusion of subtle humor alongside a fantastical plot. The plot centers on Lieutenant-Colonel Algernon Sidney St. Johnstone, who finds himself in a series of misadventures sparked by his tumultuous relationship with his fiancée, Esmeralda. After a heated argument over a birthday gift that leads to Esmeralda's dramatic departure in her plane, Algernon discovers her in dire peril—a broken leg and a confrontation with a tiger in a snowy wilderness. As he navigates absurd technological advancements and his own intoxications, Algernon rushes to rescue her, displaying a mix of bravery and comic incompetence. The story culminates in a humorous twist, blending action with a critique of societal norms, particularly gender dynamics and the absurdities of the time.
