Recalled To Life

Bag om Recalled To Life

Recalled To Life is a novel by British author Grant Allen. It is a gripping tale of love, betrayal, and redemption set in Victorian England. The story revolves around the life of a young man named Austin Thorpe who is falsely accused of a crime and sentenced to death. However, he is saved from the gallows at the last minute and transported to Australia as a convict.Years later, Austin returns to England as a wealthy and successful man, seeking revenge against those who wronged him. He meets and falls in love with a beautiful woman named Hilda, but their relationship is threatened by the secrets of his past. As Austin struggles to clear his name and win Hilda's heart, he must confront the demons of his past and make amends for his mistakes.Recalled To Life is a masterful work of fiction that explores themes of justice, forgiveness, and the power of love to overcome even the darkest of circumstances. Allen's vivid descriptions of Victorian England and his complex characters make this novel a must-read for fans of historical fiction and classic literature.As I entered the house the weird sense of familiarity that pursued me throughout rose to a very high pitch. I couldn't fairly say, indeed, that I remembered the different rooms. All I could say with certainty was that I had seen them before. To this there were three exceptions--the three that belonged to my Second State--the library, my bedroom, and the hall and staircase. The first was indelibly printed on my memory as a component part of the Picture, and I found my recollection of every object in the room almost startling in its correctness.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
