The Last Man, Volume I

Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. Long before modern dystopian tales, Mary Shelley—the author of Frankenstein—imagined a haunting vision of humanity’s end in The Last Man. Set in the late twenty-first century, this groundbreaking novel follows Lionel Verney, a solitary survivor navigating a world devastated by plague and loss. As civilization collapses and once-great empires fall, Shelley explores the fragility of human ambition, the endurance of love, and the despair of loneliness in a dying world. With its sweeping landscapes, political intrigue, and deeply personal tragedies, The Last Man is both a thrilling work of speculative fiction and a profound meditation on mortality and survival. Often considered one of the earliest works of apocalyptic literature, it continues to resonate with modern readers drawn to stories of resilience in the face of catastrophe. Powerful, prophetic, and deeply moving, this classic remains a cornerstone of dystopian fiction. Duration - 5h 47m. Author - Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley. Narrator - Digital Voice Maxwell G.
