Culled from material long unavailable to the general public, DuQuette curates this essential new digital library with the eye of a scholar and the insight of an initiate.An ancient manuscript and hidden occult powers all tangled into a love story, Zanoni is one of the most unsung novels of its time. Written in 1842 by Sir Edward Bulwer-Lytton, most known for the classic introductory line: "It was a dark and stormy night." Rosicrucians, 'Dwellers on the Threshold' and power of love thickens the plot.
