Excerpt from In a Glass Darkly, Vol. 1 of 3
Thought carefully educated in medicine and surgery, I have never practiced either. The study of each continues, nevertheless, to interest me profoundly. Neither idleness nor caprice caused my secession from the honourable calling which I had just entered. The cause was a very trifling scratch inflicted by a dissecting knife.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This captivating book whisks readers into a realm of the unseen, where the inexplicable manifests in a chilling account of a haunting. Unfolding through the perspective of a physician, it chronicles the eerie experiences of a clergyman who becomes tormented by a spectral monkey. As the narrative progresses, the specter evolves from a mere visual disturbance to an active force, disrupting the clergyman's prayers and bombarding him with sinister whispers. The author deftly explores the intersection of medicine and the supernatural, weaving a tale of psychological torment and the desperate struggle against an unfathomable presence. The book delves deeply into the themes of mental anguish, the fragility of the human psyche, and the limits of scientific understanding when confronted with the unknown. It serves as a testament to the power of faith and the resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
