The Lifted Veil by George Eliot is a brief, haunting departure from the author’s classic realist fiction. First published in 1859, this Victorian gothic tale follows Latimer, an isolated young man cursed with terrifying gifts: the ability to foresee the future and read the thoughts of those around him. The lone exception to his mind-reading ability is Bertha Grant, his brother’s cold and enigmatic fiancée. Drawn to the one person whose inner life remains a mystery, Latimer enters a destructive web of obsession and betrayal.
