About this audiobook
One unemployed factory worker has nothing left to lose. Paris is in danger!
When Pierre, a desperate laborer cast aside by society, decides to poison the city's water supply with a deadly plague, he sets in motion a disaster that no government, army, or scientist can contain. As disease tears through the French capital, the City of Light descends into fear, violence, and political upheaval.
Behind barricades and quarantine lines, revolutionaries battle the wealthy, old alliances collapse, and ordinary people are forced to decide what they will sacrifice to survive. What began as a single act of revenge soon becomes a ruthless struggle over who will control the future of a dying city.
First published in 1928, I Burn Paris is Bruno Jasieński's controversial dystopian classic. Banned in France soon after publication, the novel combines political satire, speculative fiction, and social commentary in a story that remains as unsettling today as it was nearly a century ago.
Paris was built over centuries. It may only take days to destroy it.
