Synopsis
Excerpt from Avatar: Or the Double Transformation
Perhaps! Ejaculated the doctor, as he settled himself more comfortably in his chair, as though he were preparing to listen to what might be a lengthy confidence. I don't want you, said Octave, to think me childishly obstinate, and to leave you at liberty, through my persistent silence, to wash your hands of whatever fatal result may ensue from my peculiar disease; so, since you wish it, I will tell you my story. You have already guessed the clue to it, and I won't dispute with you about details. Don't expect anything very singular or romantic. It is a very simple history, very common and trite 3 but, as Henri Heine says, he to whom it happens always finds it new, and breaks his heart over it. In truth, doctor, I am almost ashamed to mention such a commonplace matter to a man who has lived in the most fabulous and strange countries.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This captivating tale of love, loss, and the complexities of the human heart unfolds in a world of wealth and privilege.
