Soft Hands

Description

The author demonstrates that work is the foundation of life, and that noble lineage and inherited palaces are merely the product of hard work. Not every producer is rich, nor is every rich person productive. What matters in work is its benefit and usefulness, not the accumulation of wealth.

The novel revolves around the stripping of princes of their titles, possessions, and money, thus placing them in the social circle like any other individual—rich, poor, working class, or unemployed. It also depicts the difference in mindset between the wealthy and working class in terms of their interactions. The novel’s aim is to convey that all people are equal, but some rise above others through knowledge and work.
