Summary: "Melmoth the Wanderer, Vol. 4" by Charles Robert Maturin is a Gothic novel written in the early 19th century. The narrative weaves together themes of madness, religious conflict, and the supernatural, centering around the character of Isidora, whose fate entangles with the enigmatic Melmoth.
