Publisher's Synopsis
The Green Mirror: A Quiet Story is a novel written by British author Hugh Walpole in 1917. The story follows the life of a young woman named Joan who is forced to leave her home in London and move to the countryside with her aunt and uncle. While there, she discovers a mysterious green mirror that seems to have a strange power over her. As she becomes more and more obsessed with the mirror, Joan begins to lose touch with reality and her relationships with those around her begin to suffer. The novel is a haunting exploration of the power of obsession and the dangers of losing oneself in one's own desires. Walpole's prose is elegant and evocative, and the novel is considered a classic of early 20th-century British literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
