Paradise Lost – John Milton

"Better to reign in Hell, than serve in Heaven."

John Milton retells the biblical story of the Fall of Man: the rebellion of the fallen angel Satan, the temptation of Adam and Eve, and their heartbreaking expulsion from the Garden of Eden. It is a cosmic drama of pride, free will, and the loss of innocence.

Paradise Lost is the greatest epic poem in the English language. With its majestic verse and complex, compelling portrayal of Satan, it remains a challenging and awe-inspiring meditation on the human condition and the nature of evil.
