As far as the eye can reach, it curves out into the mist, the last vanishing garments, as it were, of some fleeing ghost. The sea comes, smoothly, quite silently, over the breast of it; there is a trembling whisper as it catches the highest stretch of sand and drags it for a moment down the slope, ... Read more

  • The Green Mirror: A Quiet Story

    by Hugh Walpole ...
    The fog had swallowed up the house, and the house had submitted.

The basement of the Coles’ house in Polchester was as bad ... Read more

Not so outrageous to be incredible, but more women who will not be meek rugs for spouses or family members. History and famous characters sometimes slip in to add color and historical context. Vivid descriptions of the countryside, especially the lake region. ... Read more
