Brought to you by Penguin.
Created by an Irish clergyman, Melmoth is one of the most fiendish characters in literature. In a satanic bargain, Melmoth exchanges his soul for immortality. The story of his tortured wanderings through the centuries is pieced together through those who have been implored by Melmoth to take over his pact with the devil.
Influenced by the Gothic romances of the late 18th century, Maturin's diabolic tale raised the genre to a new and macabre pitch. Its many admirers include Poe, Balzac, Oscar Wilde and Baudelaire.

My only quibble is that O’Brien pronounces “Arminian” as “Armenian.” Not the same! (The reader of the introduction does not make this mistake.)
Readers may want to know that the structure of the novel is complicated—one narrative nested inside another and another. Also, like many Gothic novels, “Melmoth” has a strong element of anti-Catholicism – and what it says about eastern religions is even worse. But then gothic novels are supposed to be horrible!
