Author : Mary Shelley
A gripping narrative by Mary Shelley, The Last Man explores themes of isolation, loss, and the relentless march of time as it follows the journey of Lionel Verney, the titular last man, through a desolate and depopulated Earth. Set against the backdrop of a crumbling civilization, Shelley’s prophetic tale delves into the human spirit's resilience in the face of unimaginable challenges. As Lionel Verney navigates the ruins of society and grapples with loneliness, he becomes a symbol of hope and despair, reflecting the enduring human quest for meaning and connection. Written by the author of the iconic Frankenstein, this book showcases Shelley’s literary prowess and her ability to provoke deep philosophical and existential questions. Her vision of a world on the brink of extinction serves as a powerful reminder of the fragility of human existence and the indomitable spirit that persists even in the darkest of times.
