The Absence of Mr. Glass

Meer over het boek

Dr. Orion Hood's consulting room, located along the Scarborough sea-front, embodies a blend of luxury and meticulous order. The space features large French windows that frame the serene ocean, creating a backdrop of monotony. While adorned with fine cigars and a selection of spirits, everything maintains a precise arrangement, reflecting the doctor's obsession with tidiness. The room also boasts a complete collection of English classics, which, although likely read, seem more like artifacts constrained to their spots, evoking a sense of controlled elegance and intellectual restraint.
