Book Overview

""Everyman: A Morality Play"" is a classic play written by an unknown author in the late 15th century. It tells the story of Everyman, a wealthy and successful man who is suddenly confronted by Death and forced to face the judgement of God. Everyman must undertake a journey to find a companion to accompany him on his journey to the afterlife, but one by one, his friends and family abandon him.
