In 1665 the Great Plague swept through London claiming nearly 100 000 lives. In A Journal of the Plague Year Defoe vividly chronicles the progress of the epidemic. We follow his fictional narrator through a city transformed-the streets and alleyways deserted the houses of death with crosses daubed on their doors the dead-carts on their way to the pits-and encounter the horrified citizens of the city as fear isolation and hysteria take hold. The shocking immediacy of Defoe's description of plague-racked London makes this one of the most convincing accounts of the Great Plague ever written.
