Publisher's Synopsis

The Tower Of The Mirrors And Other Essays On The Spirit Of Places is a book written by Vernon Lee and published in 1914. The book consists of a collection of essays that explore the relationship between people and the places they inhabit. Lee's writing style is poetic and introspective, as she delves into the history, culture, and mythology of various locations. The Tower Of The Mirrors is a central essay in the book, in which Lee reflects on her own experiences visiting a tower in Italy and the spiritual significance of the place. Other essays in the collection explore topics such as the spirit of Venice, the beauty of the Swiss Alps, and the eerie atmosphere of haunted houses. The book is a fascinating exploration of the human connection to the natural world and the power of place to shape our experiences and perceptions.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
