Publisher's Synopsis
Invisible Links is a collection of short stories by Selma Lagerlof, originally published in 1899. The stories are set in rural Sweden and explore themes of love, loss, and the supernatural. The tales are interconnected, with characters and events from one story appearing in others. The book begins with the story of a young woman who marries a wealthy man but finds herself unhappy and unfulfilled in her new life. Other stories include a man who makes a deal with the devil, a woman who is haunted by the ghost of her dead lover, and a group of travelers who are forced to spend the night in a haunted house. Lagerlof's writing is known for its vivid descriptions of the Swedish landscape and its use of folklore and mythology. Invisible Links is considered a classic of Swedish literature and has been translated into many languages.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
