A Double Story is a novel written by George MacDonald. The book tells the story of two sisters, Laura and Edith, who are very different from each other. Laura is beautiful, charming, and outgoing, while Edith is plain, quiet, and reserved. Despite their differences, the sisters are very close and love each other deeply.The novel is divided into two parts, with each part telling the story from a different perspective. The first part is narrated by Laura, who tells the story of how she fell in love with a young man named Arthur. However, their relationship is complicated by the fact that Arthur is also in love with Edith.The second part of the novel is narrated by Edith, who tells the story of her own love for Arthur. She also reveals a shocking secret that has been kept hidden from both sisters for many years.A Double Story explores themes of love, jealousy, and the complexities of human relationships. The novel is written in a lyrical and poetic style, with vivid descriptions of nature and the landscape. It is a timeless classic that continues to captivate readers with its powerful storytelling and rich characters.Not that the child was a fool. Had she been, the wise woman would have only pitied and loved her, instead of feeling sick when she looked at her. She had very fair abilities, and were she once but made humble, would be capable not only of doing a good deal in time, but of beginning at once to grow to no end.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
