Présentation de l'éditeur
Arthur Lawford found himself wandering that mild and golden September afternoon was old, green, and refreshingly still. The silence, in which it lay seemed as keen and mellow as the light the pale, almost heatless, sunlight that filled the air. Here and there robins sang across the stones, elvishly shrill in the peace of harvest. The only other living creature there seemed to Lawford to be his own rather fair, not unsubstantial, rather languid self, who at the noise of the birds had raised his head and glanced as if between content and incredulity across his still and solitary surroundings.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the unsettling transformation of Arthur Lawford, a man who, following a seemingly ordinary afternoon stroll through a tranquil churchyard, finds himself irrevocably altered. As Lawford grapples with the inexplicable change in his physical appearance, the narrative explores themes of identity, perception, and the fragility of self. Set against the backdrop of early 20th-century England, the story reflects upon the societal anxieties of a rapidly changing world grappling with emerging scientific discoveries and the erosion of traditional beliefs. Lawford's struggle to retain his sense of self amidst his baffling metamorphosis becomes a poignant exploration of the human condition and the elusive nature of reality. The author masterfully weaves elements of psychological suspense and philosophical inquiry, inviting readers to contemplate the boundaries between sanity and madness, the subjective nature of experience, and the enduring power of the human spirit in the face of the unknown. This book's thought-provoking exploration of identity and transformation offers a compelling reflection on the complexities of the human experience and the profound mysteries that lie beneath the surface of our everyday lives. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781331024361_0
