This book explores the interplay between the physical and spiritual realms, unveiling the hidden truths about the nature of existence and the possibility of moving between worlds. It draws upon spiritual and philosophical concepts to delve into the depths of human consciousness, exploring the idea that the soul, upon leaving its physical body, may linger in an ethereal duplicate of its mortal form. Through the story of Jean Jaques La Pelletier, a young man trapped in a purgatorial state, the author examines the themes of lost love, vengeance, and redemption, delving into the complexities of the human psyche and the profound impact of our past actions on our present and future existences. The book's insights offer a thought-provoking exploration of mortality, the nature of the soul, and the boundless possibilities that may lie beyond death.

First edition. Unquestionably rare copy of this supernatural occult novel from Laura M. Dake,née Wright (1844-1932).Likely published in a very small number, we find little mention of the title save for a short review in the Columbia Missouri Herald, August 11, 1899, under the heading "Books by Home Folks:" "To lovers of the occult, 'The Flight of the Shadow.' will appeal with fine fascination. It is a well-written argument for the astral world - a phrase which the theosophists are fond of employing. A gallant young [Confederate] officer is stricken almost unto death. In his delirium he is confronted by the spirit of a young man of his own age dead many years before. The latter tells his story which is strikingly like the events of the former's life and weaves through it the arguments of occultism. A note of love and mystery runs through the pages and makes of the volume a most charming one even aside from the queer theories it advances or supports." The short novel, in part, takes place on a plantation in Charleston and is steeped in the Southern culture of the time, including slave dialect. The above review also gives clues as to the author's identity, she being a resident of San Diego, formerly of Columbia, MO, and wife of a Charles T. Dake. OCLC lists Dake as the author of a religious novel,In the Crucible,and an anti-Mormon novel, which would make some sense given her upbringing in Missouri, calledA Man O' Wax,published in San Francisco, 1902. Interestingly, an audiobook of this title was recently released. Otherwise, we identify just the copy at the Library of Congress. A true rarity of the genre. Not in Bleiler, not in Locke, not in BAL. The New Sabin 9317. . 17x11cm, 128pp. Red cloth boards with vignette illustration and lettering in silver. Spine toned, some soiling and bumping to boards.
