Synopsis

Dark, supernatural verse about a restless noble who dares to bargain with powers beyond human reach.

A dramatic poem of ambition, loneliness, and the price of forbidden knowledge. Set on snow-clad peaks and shadowed towers, it follows Manfred as he invokes elemental Beings and faces the consequences of wielding powers that outstrip mortal control. The tension between intellect, emotion, and fate drives a Gothic tale woven in striking, lyrical scenes.

What you’ll experience:

• Vivid encounters with spirits and cosmic beings that bend the laws of nature
• Stormy moods, moody landscapes, and dramatic clashes between power and conscience
• Compact, evocative verse that builds atmosphere and moral tension
• Echoes of Fate, mortality, and the lure of knowledge across a mythic setting

Ideal for readers of Gothic poetry and fans of Byron’s dramatic verse, this edition brings a dark, imaginative epic to a contemporary page-turner’s edge. It’s a striking exploration of power, art, and the human heart under extraordinary pressure.
