Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Set against the backdrop of the Great Plague of 1665 in London, the narrative follows a man's harrowing experiences during this devastating time. Although presented as a contemporary account, it was actually penned in the early 18th century by Daniel Defoe, who was just a child during the plague. The story likely draws inspiration from the journals of Defoe's uncle, Henry Foe, offering a vivid and immersive portrayal of survival amidst chaos and fear.
