The Wishing Ring Man is a novel written by Margaret Widdemer. The story follows the life of a young man named Alec who inherits his grandfather's antique shop in New York City. Alec is struggling to keep the shop afloat when he discovers a magical wishing ring that can grant any wish. With the help of the ring, Alec becomes successful and wealthy, but he soon realizes that his newfound wealth comes at a great cost. The ring's power corrupts him, and he becomes obsessed with fulfilling his every desire. Along the way, he falls in love with a young woman named Mary, but his obsession with the ring threatens to destroy their relationship. As Alec's greed and selfishness grow, he must decide whether to continue down this dangerous path or to give up the ring and the power it holds. The Wishing Ring Man is a tale of temptation, love, and the consequences of our actions.She felt suddenly little and frightened and helpless. The current of mischief and merriment dropped away from her for a minute, here where everything, from the class picture on the wall to the pipe on the bureau, spoke so of John--of what everything about him meant to her--about what going away from him would mean. She flung herself on her knees beside the narrow iron cot in the corner, her arms out over the pillow where his head rested.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
