Camera Obscura is a novel written by William Bolitho that takes the reader on a journey to the past through the eyes of the protagonist, a young man named Hugh. The story is set in the late 19th century and follows Hugh as he travels to Europe to pursue his passion for photography. Along the way, he meets a variety of characters, including a mysterious woman named Gabrielle, who becomes the focus of his obsession.As Hugh navigates the unfamiliar terrain of Europe, he begins to experience strange and unsettling visions. These visions lead him to a realization that his camera has the ability to capture more than just images of the world around him. It can also capture glimpses of the past, revealing the hidden histories of the people and places he encounters.As Hugh delves deeper into the mysteries of his camera, he becomes increasingly entangled in a web of secrets and intrigue. He discovers that Gabrielle is not who she appears to be and that his own past is more complicated than he ever imagined.Camera Obscura is a beautifully written and atmospheric novel that blends elements of historical fiction, mystery, and the supernatural. It is a haunting and evocative exploration of the power of photography and the ways in which it can reveal hidden truths about ourselves and the world around us.1930. A collection of essays by William Bolitho (pseudonym of William Bolitho Ryall) author of English miscellanies, which originally appeared in the New York World. In the preface Coward illustrates the quality of Bolitho's work through his description of a cabaret, which in three short years has fallen from fashion, as having an indefinable air of antiquity, not the precious aroma of centuries, but the shabby, premature aging of a clown. See other titles by this author available from Kessinger Publishing.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
