Description
The final novel by the creator of “Frankenstein”—for the first time in Russian!
Making a fateful mistake, cavalry captain Rupert Faulkner is tormented by guilt and loses the will to live—but he finds it again when he meets at a village cemetery a six-year-old Elizabeth mourning her parents. The girl’s inner strength, humility, and kindness so impress Faulkner that he adopts the orphan and lives for her from that day on. Years later, Elizabeth grows fond of the young aristocrat Gerald Neville—who, like her guardian, is haunted by ghosts from the past. The secret binding the destinies of the two men will inevitably be revealed, and the young woman will have to make a terrible choice and decide which side she is on.
Written at the dawn of the Victorian era, Mary Shelley’s novel of crime and punishment, atonement and forgiveness continues the “Yandex Books Translations” series—a joint project with “Podpisnye izdaniya” and the “Brusnika Workshop.”
