Rime of the Ancient Mariner

Samuel Coleridge

While traveling to a wedding, a young man is pulled into the eventful narrative of the Ancient Mariner who is compelled to share his story. It's a miraculous tale about guilt, humanity and one's capacity to change.

The Ancient Mariner notices a young man traveling to a nearby wedding. He abruptly interrupts his journey and starts sharing a story about his time at sea. He details its humble beginnings and the tumultuous events that followed. As the young man listens, he's taken aback by the story and the man's fight for survival. The Ancient Mariner faced hunger, thirst and eventually death before making a realization that would change the course of his life forever.

Rime of the Ancient Mariner is one of Samuel Taylor Coleridge's most famous works. Initially published in 1798, it's had a lasting impact on literature and pop culture, including music and film. It's a brilliant tale of morality that examines a character's actions and the inevitable consequences.

With an eye-catching new cover, and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Rime of the Ancient Mariner is both modern and readable.
