Produktbeschreibung
A midnight-with-a-mirror kind of mystery, a world where foggy streets and shadowed rooms whisper secrets that survive generations. A page-turning voyage into a Gothic novel that feels both timeless and urgent. Alice, Or The Mysteries unfolds as a lucid blend of historical romance and psychological suspense, set against the evolving tremor of Victorian London. Its layered intrigue-secret societies, occult echoes, and a maze of loyalties-draws readers into a plot where atmosphere and motive coalesce with careful, humane storytelling. This is more than a reprint; it is a considered restoration that honours Bulwer Lytton's craft while making the work accessible to modern minds. The book's significance endures: a bridge between late Victorian anxieties and earlier, more somber modes of mystery, with echoes of Edgar Allan Poe shaping its mood and technique. For classic literature fans and academic study edition collectors alike, the title offers a reliable, immersive touchstone for conversations about genre, reputation, and literary influence. It rewards patient reading and repeated examination, inviting library reader editions and casual readers to discover a rare specimen of Victorian storytelling. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, this edition is restored for today's and future generations. More than a mere reproduction, it stands as a collector's item and a cultural treasure-a doorway to a richly imagined London where every truth is layered, and every shadow promises a revelation.
