Description

'Lord have mercy upon us'. If these words were painted on your door, it could only mean one thing-you were one of the infected.

In the years 1665 and 1666, the bubonic plague ravaged London.

Bodies piled up on the streets, families quarantined themselves indoors. 100,000 people would perish, a quarter of the city's population.

In "A Journal of the Plague Year", Daniel Defoe offer a fictionalised account of the pandemic, seen through the eyes of a God-fearing, upper-class Londoner.

Gruesome and vivid in its details, it makes for a terrifyingly relevant read for modern audiences. -
