Synopsis
Zastrozzi, Shelley’s first published novel, is a work of pure Gothic fantasy, offering many glimpses of the author’s nascent poetic genius. Zastrozzi, the arch-villain of the tale, is sworn to avenge the wrongs done to his mother. Prepared to go to any lengths to execute his horrific plans, he enlists the help of the willing Matilda. Together, they vow to destroy Verezzi and Julia, the subjects of their wrath, and embark upon a fateful chain of events that can lead only to catastrophe.

About the Author
Percy Bysshe Shelley was a major figure among the English Romantics. Primarily a poet, he also wrote a number of essays, letters and other prose works.
From the Inside Flap
…any purpose undertaken with ardour, and prosecuted with perseverance, must eventually be crowned with success. Love is worthy of any risk – I felt it once, but revenge has now swallowed up every other feeling of my soul. I am alive to nothing but revenge.
