Book Overview

Hyperaesthesia: A Novel is a work of fiction written by Mary Cruger and originally published in 1885. The story follows the life of a young woman named Mabel Vernon who suffers from a condition known as hyperaesthesia, which causes her to have an extreme sensitivity to sound and touch. This condition makes it difficult for Mabel to interact with others and live a normal life.Despite her struggles, Mabel is determined to find happiness and love. She meets a young man named Frank, who is also dealing with personal challenges, and the two form a deep connection. However, their relationship is complicated by Mabel's condition and the societal expectations of the time.Throughout the novel, Mabel must navigate her way through difficult situations and confront her own fears and limitations. The story explores themes of disability, love, and the limitations placed on women in the late 19th century.Overall, Hyperaesthesia: A Novel is a poignant and thought-provoking work of fiction that offers a glimpse into the challenges faced by individuals living with disabilities during a time when little was understood about these conditions.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.
