The Solitary Summer is a novel written by Elizabeth Von Arnim, first published in 1899. The book is a sequel to her earlier work, Elizabeth and Her German Garden. The story follows Elizabeth, a young woman who has retreated to her country estate for the summer. She has grown tired of the social obligations of her life in the city and longs for solitude and the opportunity to indulge her passion for gardening. As the title suggests, Elizabeth spends the summer alone, with only her garden and her books for company. She revels in the peace and quiet of her surroundings, and finds solace in the simple pleasures of life. She reflects on her past experiences and relationships, and comes to a deeper understanding of herself and her place in the world. Throughout the novel, Elizabeth shares her thoughts and observations on nature, society, and the human condition. Her musings are often witty and insightful, and provide a glimpse into the mind of a woman who is both intelligent and introspective. The Solitary Summer is a charming and uplifting novel that celebrates the joys of solitude and self-discovery. It is a timeless classic that continues to resonate with readers today.It is a relief to me to write about these things that I so much love, for I do not talk of them lest I should be regarded as a person who rhapsodizes, and there is no nuisance more intolerable than having somebody's rhapsodies thrust upon you when you have no enthusiasm of your own that at all corresponds. I know this so well that I generally succeed in keeping quiet; but sometimes even now, after years of study in the art of holding my tongue, some stray fragment of what I feel does occasionally come out, and then I am at once pulled up and brought to my senses by the well-known cold stare of utter incomprehension.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
