A jailed psychic, a rich lady who yearns for freedom, a group of women trapped by the times. Rich girl Margaret is shocked when she sees the female prisoner Selina Dawes. She evoked her pain of being imprisoned, her desire for freedom, and her longing for an unknown life. She went to prison frequently uncontrollably and took great care of Selina. From sympathy to recognition, from empathy to love, Margaret's feelings for Selina were out of control. But is this mysterious girl a liar-talking fraudster, or a genius with extraordinary talents? "The Spirit" is the second part of Sarah Waters's Victorian trilogy. It is a work full of narrative power and textual power. It reveals the emotional and social dilemmas of women profoundly and sharply.
