Notă biografică

Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley was born in 1797 to the feminist Mary Wollstonecraft and the radical philosopher William Godwin. At the age of 16, she fell in love with the poet Percy Bysshe Shelley, and they left England together against her father's will, traveling throughout Europe. When Percy died in 1822, drowning in a boat during a storm, Mary Shelley had already had to cope with two suicides, miscarriage, family illness, financial stress, and the deaths of three of her children. She returned to England in 1823 and was given a small allowance by her father-in-law to support her surviving child, Percy Florence. She died on February 1, 1851, possibly from a brain tumor. When her family opened her writing desk, they found locks of her dead children's hair, a notebook she had shared with Percy, and a copy of his poem Adonaïs with one page folded around a silk parcel containing some of his ashes and the remains of his heart.

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
A brilliant, early dystopian tale, 'The Last Man' is a powerful, post-apocalyptic tale and precursor to the later science fiction of H.G. Wells, George Orwell, Philip K. Dick and Harlan Ellison amongst others. Overshadowed by the titanic success of Frankenstein, Mary Shelley’s neglected masterpiece tells of a future laid waste by plague.

Recenzii

The Last Man created an entirely new genre, compounded of the domestic romance, the Gothic extravaganza, and the sociological novel. . . . [Mary Shelley's] most interesting, if not her most consummate work.”—Muriel Spark

“An absorbing roman à clef, [it] develops one of the major themes of romantic art, that of spiritual isolation, and . . . treats it in a unique way.”—The Year's Work in English Studies

“A fascinating . . . novel-romance on a timely subject.”—Studies in English Literature
