Caleb Williams Godwin William
In William Godwin's dark psychological novel of paranoia and persecution, the eponymous hero is a guileless young servant who enters the employment of Ferdinando Falkland, a cosmopolitan and benevolent country gentleman. His discovery of the truth leads to false accusations against him, and a vengeful pursuit as suspenseful as any thriller. Falkland is subject to fits of unexplained melancholy, and Caleb becomes convinced that he harbors a dark secret.
This is the first paperback edition to reproduce the first edition (1794), restoring the original, highly topical novel written during the political crisis of 1793-4 when the British government clamped down on the burgeoning reform movement. The novel is also a powerful political allegory, inspired by the events of the decade following the French Revolution. The edition is further enhanced by Pamela Clemit's comprehensive introduction
