Douglas Boatman's La Nekonata Konato is a mystery novel, first published in 1932 by Heroldo de Esperanto, Cologne, and this second edition is a photographic reproduction of the first edition. The author was born in 1892, and served in the Great War in Gallipoli, Egypt, Palestine, France and Belgium. In 1926 he became the first president of the Esperanto Society of Southend-on-Sea and in 1928 the first secretary of Rotary Friends of Esperantists.
Marko Monington promises his dying wife he will never love another. When he breaks that vow for a younger woman, a mysterious figure named Mr. Vincent enters his life, challenging his new-found happiness. A classic psychological mystery told in the 'Universal Language'.
