From the author of Frankenstein comes this apocalyptic tale of a world devastated by plague. Mary Shelley's 1826 roman clef takes place in the late 21st century, as England's last king abdicates and a charmed circle of idealistic political reformers plunges into a maelstrom of war, pestilence, and anarchy.
Shelley wrote this gripping novel after the untimely deaths of her husband, Percy Bysshe Shelley, and their comrade, Lord Byron. She modeled a pair of characters on the charismatic poets and based the narrator -- the sole survivor of a pandemic -- on her own persona. This parable of humanity's destruction by plague is widely regarded as a repudiation of Romanticism and its failure to solve the world's problems through art and philosophy. It reflects the ways utopian ideals, unchecked by moral and ethical standards, can shatter society.
Misunderstood by19th-century readers, Shelley's visionary novel disappeared for over a century, only to reemerge to critical acclaim as a precursor of science fiction and a forerunner of modern apocalyptic tales. Novelist Muriel Spark hailed it as the harbinger of "an entirely new genre, compounded of the domestic romance, the Gothic extravaganza, and the sociological novel," and pronounced it Shelley's "most interesting, if not her consummate work."

Gorgeous summer glow anytime

The body shimmer is like being kissed by warm summer breeze a glow of star dust. It lights not sticky or tacky. It gloriously luxurious but simple way to step a look.

Cute, Smells like Chemicals
Color: Rose Gold #01, Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Color: Rose Gold #01, Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Looks great but transfers easily. I liked the shade and how the glitter was visible but not distracting. I wasn’t fond of how it smelled but I covered the scent with my sunscreen and I didn’t notice afterwards. Smells like a chemical like scent but it was worth the value I paid for. Good as a highlighter, to add a touch of glow to the face. You can’t see it under foundation but it’s cute on the cheek bones to give a make up less look on a sunny day. The brush is also good quality.

Quick glow up
Color: Glistening Bronze #03, Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This is a great bronzing shimmer for a little added glow before walking out the door! It's very lightweight and goes on very smooth with brush. I ended up buying and using a larger kabuki brush to brush on faster but the brush it comes with works ok as well. It's the perfect amount of bronze and shimmer.. not glittery or over the top and doesn't have a smell. Doesn't transfer on clothes but I always let it dry a few minutes before putting on clothes.
