Více o knize
Set against the backdrop of the Great Plague of 1665, the narrative offers a harrowing yet detailed portrayal of life in London during this catastrophic event. Through the eyes of a man who witnesses the transformation of his city, readers experience the stark contrast between daily life and the grim realities of death and despair, marked by houses designated with crosses and the sight of dead-carts. Defoe masterfully intertwines historical fact with personal stories, making this account both a significant historical document and a profound exploration of human suffering.
