About this book

In a crowded Gothic church, a man called the Wanderer catches sight of the woman he has long sought. Organ music, memorial candles and the press of worshippers frame his recognition of a beloved face whose appearance has changed. F. Marion Crawford sets this fantastic novel in Prague, where the longing for a beloved face enters a world of strange powers and uneasy perceptions.

A later exchange brings the Wanderer into a dispute between Unorna and Israel Kafka. Kafka declares his continuing love for her and claims that she has power over both men, while Unorna answers with scorn. Their conversation makes affection, pride and control part of the same troubled relationship. Readers drawn to supernatural fiction can follow the tension between what the characters feel, what they say and what they believe they have seen. The richly detailed church scene gives that tension a distinctly architectural and musical setting.
