About the book

John Milton's Paradise Lost is one of the greatest epic poems in the English language. It tells the story of Satan's rebellion against God, his expulsion from Heaven and his determination to corrupt the newly created human race. The poem then turns to Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden and the temptation that leads to humanity's fall. Written in magnificent blank verse, Paradise Lost explores free will, ambition, obedience, temptation and redemption on an immense cosmic scale.
