The Victorian Chaise-longue by Marghanita Laski is a haunting tale of identity and transformation. A young married woman's life takes an unexpected turn when she lies down on a chaise-longue, only to wake up in the body of her alter ego ninety years before. As she navigates this unfamiliar world, she must confront the darker aspects of her own psyche and the societal norms that have shaped her existence. This is a story of self-discovery, of the complexities of human nature, and the blurred lines between reality and fantasy. With its unique blend of psychological insight and atmospheric horror, The Victorian Chaise-longue is a compelling read for those who enjoy exploring the darker corners of the human experience.
