Book excerpt: Latimer is cursed with psychic abilities that allow him to see the future, yet he’s unable to avoid the dark turn of his own life. What many consider a gift, he sees as a curse that has destroyed his ability to have normal relationships. Latimer can hear people’s deepest thoughts and has visions of their impending future. It’s a power he acquired at a young age following a brief illness. Latimer loathes his ability, as it has made it nearly impossible for him to make genuine connections. He unknowingly uncovers dark secrets that reveal the worst of humanity. Despite this foresight, Latimer’s desire to control his own narrative blinds him to an inevitable outcome. The Lifted Veil is a unique entry in Eliot’s literary catalogue. It was released the same year as her debut novel, Adam Bede, and is a stark departure from her usual themes. It highlights a different point-of-view and Eliot’s diverse storytelling ability. With an eye-catching new cover, and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of The Lifted Veil is both modern and readable.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Lifted Veil is a novella by George Eliot, first published in 1859. Quite unlike the realistic fiction for which Eliot is best known, The Lifted Veil explores themes of extrasensory perception, the essence of physical life, possible life after death, and the power of fate. The novella is a significant part of the Victorian tradition of horror fiction, which includes such other examples as Robert Louis Stevenson's The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1886), and Bram Stoker's Dracula (1897).

Download or read book The Lifted Veil written by George Eliot and published by Bibliolis Books. This book was released on 2010 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published together, The Lifted Veil and Brother Jacob have been reunited in this splendid edition of two of George Eliot's most beloved short stories. The Lifted Veil is a dark fantasy, an insightful portrait of an artist whose powers of clairvoyance are hardly a gift. In contrast, Brother Jacob is the story of conflict between two brothers and the temptation of sugar. Though sugar invites thoughts of levity today, in the middle of the 19th century, sugar carried overtones of slavery, emancipation and free trade, serious topics of the day that are explored in Eliot's story.

Book excerpt: Buku ini memuat dua novela George Eliot dengan dua ide cerita yang sangat jauh berbeda. Brother Jacob mengangkat cerita tentang hubungan dua bersaudara antara David Faux yang sangat egois serta ambisius dan kakaknya yang idiot, Jacob. David Faux, seorang anak petani Inggris, yang terbiasa makan dendeng babi dan pangsit, mempunyai ilusi menyenangkan bahwa penjual kembang gula pastilah seorang yang sangat bahagia dan terkenal, karena dia menciptakan sesuatu yang tidak saja sangat indah dilihat, tapi juga makanan terbaik.
