Account Rendered is a novel written by British author Edward Frederic Benson and published in 1911. The story follows the life of a young man named Richard, who is the only son of a wealthy businessman. Richard is a talented artist, but his father wants him to follow in his footsteps and become a successful businessman. Richard struggles to reconcile his artistic aspirations with his father's expectations and ultimately decides to pursue a career in art. As Richard becomes more successful as an artist, he also becomes more distant from his family and friends. He falls in love with a woman named Hilda, but their relationship is complicated by their different social backgrounds and Richard's own insecurities. The novel explores themes of family, social class, and artistic ambition. It also offers a glimpse into the world of British high society in the early 20th century. Benson's writing is characterized by his wit and his ability to capture the nuances of human relationships. Overall, Account Rendered is a thought-provoking and engaging novel that offers insight into the challenges faced by artists and the tensions between tradition and innovation in early 20th century Britain.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
