V. V.'s Eyes is a novel written by American author Henry Sydnor Harrison and published in 1913. The book tells the story of a young woman named Virginia Van Vechten (V. V.), who is born with a unique gift - the ability to see through people's masks and into their true selves. This gift, however, proves to be both a blessing and a curse for V. V. as she navigates the social world of turn-of-the-century America.Through V. V.'s eyes, the reader is introduced to a cast of characters that includes her wealthy and powerful family, as well as their friends and associates. V. V.'s gift allows her to see past the facade of these people and understand their true motivations, desires, and flaws. As she grows older, V. V. struggles to reconcile her ability with the expectations of her family and society, ultimately leading to a crisis of identity.The novel is set against the backdrop of the early 20th century, with themes of love, class, and societal expectations woven throughout. Harrison's writing style is characterized by a keen attention to detail and a focus on the inner lives of his characters. V. V.'s Eyes was a popular novel in its time and remains a classic of American literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
