The Carasoyn (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781161458961)

The Carasoyn is a novel written by George MacDonald, a Scottish author known for his fantasy and children's literature works. The story follows the life of a young man named Cosmo Warlock, who inherits a mysterious house known as Carasoyn from his late father. As he explores the house, he discovers strange and inexplicable things, including a secret room and a hidden garden.As Cosmo delves deeper into the mysteries of Carasoyn, he realizes that the house is haunted by the ghosts of his ancestors. He also learns that his family has a dark and tragic history, and that he must confront his own inner demons in order to break the cycle of violence and despair that has plagued his family for generations.Throughout the novel, MacDonald explores themes of redemption, forgiveness, and the power of love to overcome even the most profound darkness. The Carasoyn is a haunting and thought-provoking work that will appeal to readers who enjoy gothic literature, supernatural fiction, and psychological drama.He was an awful looking creature, with a great hare lip, and a red ball for a nose. Whatever he did--speak, or laugh, or sneeze--he did not stop working one moment. As often as the sparks flew in his face he snapped at them with his eyes (which were the colour of a half-dead coal), now with this one, now with that; and the more sparks they got into them the brighter his eyes grew.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
