Over dit audioboek
Imprisoned by pleasure. Rasselas, prince of Abyssinia, lives a life of luxury within the Happy Valley, a paradise built to shield him from the world's harsh realities. Yet, a gnawing discontent festers within him. Yearning for truth and purpose, Rasselas hatches a daring escape with his sister Nekayah and the wise poet Imlac. Together, they embark on a quest beyond the gilded walls, venturing into a world teeming with contrasting lives and philosophies. Will they find happiness in bustling cities or serene countryside? Can true fulfillment be found in love, knowledge, or power? Lend your ears to Samuel Johnson's timeless tale, "Rasselas, Prince of Abyssinia," and join the search for meaning in a life of endless possibilities.
