Extra-sensory perception is a unique gift of nature–or is it an affliction? To Hilda, Michael Bristowe’s power to perceive forces beyond the limits of the five basic senses offers the promise of some brighter future for humanity, and yet for the bearer himself–dizzied by the threat of sensory bombardment and social exile–the picture is not so clear.

First published in 1927, Muriel Jaeger’s second pioneering foray into science fiction is a sensitive and thought-provoking portrait of the struggle for human connection and relationships tested and transformed under the pressures of supernatural influence.
