Asleep and Awake is a novel written by Raymond Russell and published in 1893. The story revolves around the lives of two sisters, Ethel and Maud, who are orphaned at a young age and sent to live with their aunt and uncle in the countryside. Ethel, the elder sister, is a dreamy and imaginative girl who often retreats into her own world of fantasies and daydreams. Maud, on the other hand, is practical and down-to-earth, and takes on the responsibility of looking after Ethel.As the girls grow up, they become increasingly different in their outlooks on life. Ethel becomes more and more detached from reality, while Maud becomes more practical and focused on building a life for herself. The novel explores the themes of love, loss, and the human psyche, as Ethel struggles to reconcile her dreams with the harsh realities of life, and Maud tries to balance her own desires with her responsibilities to her sister.Asleep and Awake is a poignant and thought-provoking novel that delves deep into the complexities of human nature. It is a timeless classic that continues to captivate readers with its vivid characters, evocative descriptions, and powerful themes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
