Set in the 19th century, these two captivating novellas by A.S. Byatt explore themes of science, faith, and human nature, blending fact and fiction through rich storytelling. In "Morpho Eugenia," an explorer observes unsettling similarities between humans and insects, while "The Conjugal Angel" features curious gatherings of fictional and historical figures seeking to connect with the spirit world. Both stories offer a vivid portrayal of Victorian eccentricities within a magical and intricate tapestry.
