Více o knize
Amidst a devastating plague known as the "Red Death," Prince Prospero seeks refuge in a lavish abbey with a thousand friends, isolating themselves from the horrors outside. The disease, marked by gruesome symptoms and rapid demise, has ravaged the land, but the prince and his courtiers indulge in festivities, believing they can escape the inevitable. Their extravagant celebration contrasts sharply with the grim reality beyond the abbey's iron gates, highlighting themes of denial, mortality, and the false sense of security in the face of impending doom.
