Publisher's Synopsis
A Voyage to Arcturus is a science fiction novel by David Lindsay, originally published in 1920. The story follows the journey of a man named Maskull, who travels to the planet Arcturus on a quest for knowledge and enlightenment. Along the way, he encounters a variety of strange and fantastical creatures, each with their own unique characteristics and motivations. As Maskull delves deeper into the mysteries of Arcturus, he begins to question his own identity and purpose in life. The novel explores themes of existentialism, spirituality, and the search for meaning in a seemingly chaotic universe. With its vivid imagery and imaginative world-building, A Voyage to Arcturus has been hailed as a classic of early 20th century science fiction literature.On a march evening, at eight o'clock, Backhouse, the medium - a fast - rising star in the psychic world - was ushered into the study at Prolands, the Hampstead residence of Montague Faull.
