Catalogue synopsis

Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:

"Zanoni" by Baron Edward Bulwer Lytton Lytton is a novel published in 1842. It tells the story of Zanoni, a mysterious immortal who has lived since ancient Chaldean times and possesses occult powers through Rosicrucian wisdom. When he falls in love with Viola, a young Neapolitan opera singer, he risks losing his eternal life. Set against the backdrop of the French Revolution, the novel explores themes of love, sacrifice, and esoteric knowledge, weaving together prophetic, mystical, poetic, and romantic elements into a tale of supernatural aspiration.
