Beskrivelse af Mr. Achilles
""Mr. Achilles"" by Jennette Lee is a novel that tells the story of a young woman named Alice who is hired to be the personal secretary of Mr. Achilles, a wealthy and reclusive businessman. Alice is initially intimidated by Mr. Achilles' cold and distant demeanor, but as she spends more time with him, she begins to uncover the truth about his past and the reasons behind his guarded personality. Along the way, Alice also learns about herself and her own desires, as she navigates a complex web of relationships and emotions. With its richly drawn characters and vivid descriptions of turn-of-the-century New York City, ""Mr. Achilles"" is a compelling tale of love, loss, and the power of human connection.He looked up into the darkness and waited. He would let her sleep a minute . . . there was little danger now. The city waited, over there, with its low lights; and the friendly night shut them in. Before the morning dawned he should bring her home--safe home. . . . A kind of simple pride held him, and his heart leaped a little to the stars and sang with them--as he squatted in the low grass, keeping guard.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
