by Edna Kingsley Wallace
About this book
Edna Kingsley Wallace's *The Stars in the Pool* is a luminous prose poem that transports listeners to an enchanted realm where love, fate, and beauty converge in timeless elegance. Within a magnificent white castle nestled in a dreaming forest, the fair Roseheart—daughter of the wise King Telwyn—embodies innocence and grace, her beauty rivaling the dawn itself. When Flame, a godlike youth from a distant island of fiery mountains and wonders, arrives at the kingdom's shores, he carries with him the promise of passion and transformation. Wallace weaves lyrical language and romantic imagery throughout this early twentieth-century narrative, creating a meditation on desire, connection, and the eternal pull between two souls. Originally published in 1920, this classic work exemplifies the author's gift for capturing the delicate interplay of emotion and beauty through poetic prose. The narrative unfolds with dreamlike intensity, inviting readers into a world where every detail—from golden hair catching sunlight to twilight-colored eyes—resonates with symbolic meaning. *The Stars in the Pool* is ideal for listeners who cherish romantic literature, fairy tale retellings, and the ornate language of classic prose poetry. Perfect for those seeking an audiobook that combines timeless storytelling with lyrical artistry.
