The Last Man Mary Shelley, most famous for "Frankenstein" also
wrote several other novels and short stories. "The Last Man" was
her second best-seller, written about ten years after the
publication of "Frankenstein". The Last Man is an apocalyptic
science fiction novel about tragic love and a future world that has
been ravaged by a plague. It reflects Shelley's fears about
civilization and the shortcomings of human behavior. Lionel Verney,
the narrator and last survivor of a twenty-first century plague,
recounts how he discovers a manuscript written in 2100. But aside
from the novel being delightful and arguably obscure entertainment
for the Romantic literature aficionado, it is the foundation of
English Sci-Fi from H.G. Wells to Arthur C. Clarke, not to mention
such works as "The Stand" by Stephen King and "I am Legend" by
Richard Matheson.
