Description
The Cenci is a verse drama written by Percy Bysshe Shelley in 1819. It was inspired by a real Italian family and explores themes that were considered too intense for its time, leading to its initial unperformability. Despite this, the play has been recognized as an important work of the western canon, and it was not performed in London until 1922. Today, it remains a significant part of literary history, offering readers a glimpse into Shelley's unique style and vision. This edition features a paperback binding and 200 pages, making it a compact and accessible introduction to this lesser-known but thought-provoking work by Percy Bysshe Shelley.
