Summary "The Treasure of the Isle of Mist" by W. W. Tarn is a fantasy novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around Fiona, a curious and vibrant fifteen-year-old girl, and her father, the Student, who is a learned man with a penchant for philosophical musings. As they navigate their tranquil life on the Isle of Mist, Fiona is gifted a search for a hidden treasure by an enigmatic old hawker, setting off a series of mystical and adventurous events that intertwine reality with the realms of fantasy. At the start of this tale, readers are introduced to Fiona and her father living in a charming gray house by the sea. The narrative quickly reveals their quirky interactions, particularly through humorous dialogues and their relationships with an old hawker who brings a sense of magic into their lives. The old man's gifts lead Fiona on a quest that intertwines her fate with the mysterious "Urchin," a boy who becomes an important ally in her treasure hunt. The opening chapters establish not only the whimsical tone of the novel but also hint at deeper themes involving imagination, friendship, and the allure of adventure, inviting the reader into a world where the extraordinary awaits just beyond the ordinary.
