Description

Paradise Lost is an epic poem in blank verse by John Milton, first published in 1667. The poem consists of ten books, featuring over ten thousand lines of verse, and is considered Milton's major work, solidifying his reputation as one of the greatest English poets of his time.

The poem tells the story of the Fall of Man, in which the temptation of Adam and Eve by the fallen angel Satan leads to their expulsion from the Garden of Eden. This iconic work is represented by 50 illustrations by Gustave Doré, adding visual depth to the narrative.

Published in 2015, this illustrated edition of Paradise Lost offers a unique reading experience, bringing the poem's complex themes and imagery to life. With its rich history and enduring themes, this book is a significant work of English literature that continues to be studied and admired today.
