Through the Eye of the Needle (Barnes & Noble Digital Library)

This 1907 utopian romance is the final volume in the trilogy that includes A Traveler from Alturia (1894) and Letters of an Alturian Traveler (1904). The novel takes the form of letters from the protagonist, Aristides Homos, to his friend Cyril. In New York City, Homos falls in love with Evelith Strange, a socialite whose lifestyle conflicts with her Christian values—values that Homos could help her regain back in utopian Alturia, if she accepts his offer to go.
