Questionable Shapes is a novel written by William Dean Howells, first published in 1903. The story revolves around a young man named Kenwick who is haunted by a mysterious woman he met in Venice. As he returns to America, he finds himself struggling with his own identity and the expectations of society. Kenwick's journey takes him through various locations, including New York City and rural New England, where he encounters a cast of characters who challenge his beliefs and values. The novel explores themes of identity, morality, and the consequences of societal pressure. Howells, a prominent American literary figure, is known for his realistic and naturalistic style of writing, and Questionable Shapes is no exception. The book is a thought-provoking and engaging read that offers a glimpse into the complexities of the human experience.I see that you think I took a liberty, and I did. But that's nothing. That isn't the point. How I do keep beating about the bush! Mrs. Rock says it was a great deal worse to tell where it happened, for that would give the place the reputation of being haunted and nobody could ever live there afterwards, for they couldn't keep servants, even if they didn't have the creeps themselves, and it would ruin the property.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
