Valperga - or the Life and Adventures of Castruccio, Prince of Lucca (Paperback, Revised)

This new addition to the Women Writers in English series reprints Mary Shelley's second novel, first published in 1823. Although the novel was a commercially unsuccessful follow-up to Shelley's Frankenstein, this absorbing tale of the adventures and misadventures of a Tuscan prince vividly demonstrates Shelley's mastery of political history, which was unique among women of her time. It is sure to be a major highlight of the Mary Shelley bicentenary in 1997.
