House on the Shore

«House on the Shore» — one of the last novels by English writer Daphne du Maurier, whose name is known all over the world. As in many of du Maurier's works, among which are such famous pieces as «Rebecca», «Jamaica... Inn» and «My Cousin Rachel», the action of the novel takes place in Cornwall, where the writer spent most of her life. Dick Young arrives at an old house on the shore of the bay, hoping to take a break from the hustle and bustle of London life. The mansion belongs to his longtime friend Magnus Kane, a professor of biophysics. In exchange for hospitality, Magnus asks Dick to experience the effects of the «elixir» he has created, which, according to the professor, has a rather unusual property of connecting the past and the future. The other world that Dick immerses himself in turns out to be much more real than the life he has led so far…
