The Dream of Ravan: A Mystery is a novel written by George Robert Stow Mead and first published in 1895. The story revolves around the mysterious death of a young woman named Constance Kent, whose body is found in a locked room in a London suburb. The case is investigated by the protagonist, Inspector Winter, who uncovers a complex web of deceit and betrayal involving the victim's family and friends. As he delves deeper into the case, Winter is haunted by a recurring dream of the Hindu demon king Ravan, which seems to hold the key to the mystery. The novel is notable for its blend of detective fiction and spiritual themes, as well as its exploration of Victorian society and its values. Mead, a prominent Theosophist and scholar of comparative religion, brings his knowledge and interests to bear on the novel, which offers a unique perspective on the genre. Overall, The Dream of Ravan is a fascinating and thought-provoking work of fiction that will appeal to fans of mystery, spirituality, and Victorian literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
