Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Exploring themes of civilization and human behavior, the narrative features Lionel Verney, the last survivor of a twenty-first century apocalypse, who discovers a manuscript detailing a devastating plague. Through this prophetic tale, Mary Shelley critiques political and philosophical systems while examining the darker aspects of humanity, such as selfishness and pride. Influenced by her progressive upbringing, the novel also addresses concepts of female independence and sexual freedom against the backdrop of nineteenth-century conventions. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper.
