The narrative device at the heart of the story is an apparatus called \"Gloriana,\" engineered to render individuals completely imperceptible, extending invisibility to their garments and portable belongings through the application of radioactive element radiation. A significant work of early twentieth-century speculative fiction, this volume represents an intriguing chapter in Russian literary experimentation with science fiction themes during the interwar period.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Stanza Rare Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43962918895658,"sku":"EB-306297804568","price":80.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0701\/6359\/5306\/files\/57_3093e729-985e-48f5-8c16-fa932f17c28e.jpg?v=1768158493","url":"https:\/\/stanzararebooks.com\/products\/1st-ed-gloriana-fantastic-novel-1924-%d0%b3%d0%bb%d0%be%d1%80%d0%b8%d0%b0%d0%bd%d0%b0-%d1%84%d0%b0%d0%bd%d1%82%d0%b0%d1%81%d1%82%d0%b8%d1%87%d0%b5%d1%81%d0%ba%d0%b8%d0%b9-%d1%80%d0%be%d0%bc%d0%b0%d0%bd-%d0%bd%d0%b8%d0%ba%d0%be%d0%bb%d1%8c%d1%81%d0%b5%d0%bd","provider":"Stanza Rare Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
