Omschrijving

The Romance of the Forest is a Gothic novel written by Ann Radcliffe, originally published in 1791. The story follows Adeline, a young Frenchwoman who is forced to flee from Paris during the French Revolution. She seeks refuge in a remote and mysterious castle in the forest, where she meets a handsome young man named Theodore. As Adeline becomes more and more entangled in the castle's secrets and intrigues, she begins to fear for her own safety and that of Theodore. Along the way, she uncovers dark family secrets, encounters ghosts and bandits, and struggles to maintain her own sanity in the face of danger and uncertainty. The Romance of the Forest is a classic example of the Gothic genre, featuring atmospheric descriptions of the natural world, supernatural elements, and a suspenseful plot full of twists and turns. It is a timeless tale of love, mystery, and adventure that has captivated readers for generations.He approached, and perceived the Gothic remains of an abbey: it stood on a kind of rude lawn, overshadowed by high and spreading trees, which seemed coeval with the building, and diffused a romantic gloom around. The greater part of the pile appeared to be sinking into ruins, and that, which had withstood the ravages of time, shewed the remaining features of the fabric more awful in decay. The lofty battlements, thickly enwreathed with ivy, were half demolished, and become the residence of birds of prey. Huge fragments of the eastern tower, which was almost demolished, lay scattered amid the high grass, that waved slowly to the breeze.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
