The Autobiography of a Fortune Teller216 pp. "Historic Saltwood Castle, in Kent.... A little girl, exploring, finds magic, fairyland, and a highly placed personage - was he a prince? - who tells her tales of long ago, of warriors and fair ladies, of love and intrigue. For the stranger had been struck by the "difference" in little Doreen, a special sensitivity. As a barmaid, then as a shopgirl in the London of the 1890's, she studied palmistry and numerology, impelled work 'with people.' She became confidante, counselor, and friend to the glamorous in London society, in the gay Coronation year - 1910 - of George V and Mary... and her heart was often heavy with tragedies she 'read' in the aristocratic hands extended to her. Then to Australia. Here was a vastly different milieu where, despite ignorance, prejudice, even malice - and often threatened with imprisonment - she strove to use her gift of 'seeing' to help others, among them brave 'Aussie' boys going off to fight in France, and their distracted families. Back to England, and fresh triumphs; then California, where Doreen believed she had found a home at last... and love. Professionally successful, patronized by filmland's great, she had a wonderful, varied life, but one filled with heartache, and the aloneness that afflicts those who are able to 'see beyond.'"
