| Summary | "The Mummy and Miss Nitocris: A Phantasy of the Fourth Dimension" by George Griffith is a supernatural novel written in the early 20th century. It intertwines themes of Egyptology, time, and dimensions, featuring a brilliant yet overworked professor, Franklin Marmion, and his daughter, Miss Nitocris Marmion. The story delves into their lives as they encounter an ancient mummy that sets off a sequence of supernatural events, including visions of the past and the enigma of dimensions beyond human comprehension. At the start of the story, Professor Marmion is engrossed in his work when his daughter, Nitocris, excitedly discusses the mummy that has just been delivered to their home. Their playful banter reveals both a touch of humor and their scientific minds, pondering the concepts of time and dimensions. As the narrative unfolds, the professor experiences a strange connection with the mummy, drawing him into a surreal confrontation with the spirit of Queen Nitocris and profound implications of existence. This collision of past and present hints at a broader exploration of love, vengeance, and the paradoxes of time as the story progresses. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
