Více o knize
The narrative centers on John Melmoth, a Dublin student who becomes consumed by the enigma of his ancestor, Melmoth the Wanderer, a figure shrouded in mystery and linked to the Faustian legend. As he investigates his family's dark past, he encounters a manuscript from Stanton, a man obsessed with Melmoth, who is confined in a mental institution. The novel weaves together Gothic romance with critical reflections on 19th-century Britain and the Catholic Church, exploring profound themes of faith, fantasy, and the boundaries between dreams and reality.
