✦ Synopsis


The House Without Windows is an imaginative child’s name for the world of untouched nature β€”because that world is itself nothing but one clear window upon beauty, which is a child’s reality. The romantic story, printed exactly as written by a nine-year-old girl, is a clear and delicate record of discontent with ordinary pedestrian reality –with mere human parents and what they can provide. In meadows and woodland, by the sea, on the icy crags of mountains, the child - heroine, a runaway seeker, learns to understand the whispered language of nature. The story has something to say to children and perhaps even more to all who are interested in children. The volume contains an adequate explanatory note by the author’s father.
