A fantastical allegory. "Mr. Cosmo Paradyne, K. C. , awoke. He awoke to an intense consciousness of being wide awake. It was dark. He damned his ill-luck, for he knew that insomnia had marked him for its own for the rest of the night." "William John Locke (20 March 1863 15 May 1930) was a novelist and playwright.In 1894 he published his first novel, At the Gate of Samaria, but he did not achieve real success for another decade, with The Morals of Marcus Ordeyne (1905) and The Beloved Vagabond (1906). Chambers Biographical Dictionary wrote of his "long series of novels and plays which with their charmingly written sentimental themes had such a success during his life in both Britain and America. His plays, some of which were dramatised versions of his novels, were all produced with success on the London Stage" (p. 836). On 19 May 1911, Locke married Aimee Maxwell Close (née Heath) , the divorced wife of Percy Hamilton Close, in Chelsea in London. The wedding was attended by Alice Baines and James Douglas."
