About this book
Creators: Baron Edward Bulwer Lytton Lytton (1803-1873) "The Last Days of Pompeii" by Baron Edward Bulwer Lytton Lytton is a novel written in 1834. Set in first-century Pompeii, it follows Athenian nobleman Glaucus and his love for the beautiful Ione, threatened by the malevolent Egyptian sorcerer Arbaces. As Arbaces schemes to destroy their happiness through murder and deception, Mount Vesuvius rumbles ominously above. The story weaves together romance, betrayal, and religious conflict, building toward the catastrophic eruption that will consume the city in AD 79. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
