Excerpt from Cornell University Library: Bought With the Income of the Sage Endowement Fund Given in 1891
Back in Piccadilly on a May morning! To the traveller from the East, the Old familiar roar of London traffic was like the music of a mother's voice.
Major Marchmont stood at his Club window, after four years' absence - years of vivid colour and hot adventure. Torrid climes had dried up his fresh English com plexion, but his frame was still wiry from his passionate love Of the Chase.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book begins with the return home of Major Marchmont, an explorer recently back from an extended stay in the Middle East. Upon his arrival, he finds his old friends have married and moved on with their lives. While visiting his godson, Mostyn, the Major hears the fantastical tale of Mostynâs stepmother, Diana, and her belief that through the power of will and a series of mysterious chants, she will be able to implant in her unborn child memories of a past life. Marchmont is at once curious and skeptical but is pulled into the grand experiment by Diana's earnest enthusiasm. Soon, the pair begin to clash with Diana's friend Ella Goodwin, a fervent believer in esoteric Christianity, and her insistence that Diana will draw maleficent spirits to her child with her rituals, leading to a falling out between the new parents and Ella. Despite their concerns, Diana presses on with her plans, and the child is born in the strange temple she had constructed in her garden, surrounded by mystery and chanting. As Diana recuperates, she becomes increasingly worried by Ella's absence, while Arnold refuses to speak of what happened to their friend. This book is a rich exploration of themes of memory, fate, and destiny through a multilayered narrative that weaves together the mundane and the mystical, the physical world, and the spiritual realm. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
