About the book

Mary Shelley's The Last Man imagines a future world devastated by a mysterious global plague. The novel follows Lionel Verney and his circle as civilisation gradually collapses and humanity approaches extinction. Combining speculative fiction, political reflection and personal tragedy, it is an early and remarkably ambitious example of apocalyptic literature.
