The History of Rasselas, Prince of Abissinia (Penguin Classics)
The History of Rasselas Prince of Abissinia - Penguin Classics
Author: Samuel Johnson, D. J. Enright
Rasselas--regarded as Johnson's most creative work--presents the story of the journey of Rasselas and his companions in search of "the choice of life." Its charm lies not in its plot, but rather in its wise and humane look at man's constant search for happiness. The text is based on the second edition as Samuel Johnson revised it.
