The house without windows & Eepersip's life there by Barbara Newhall Follett
"The House Without Windows & Eepersip's Life There" by Barbara Newhall Follett is a novel likely written in the early 20th century. The story follows a young girl named Eepersip who feels a profound sense of loneliness despite the beauty surrounding her, prompting her to embark on a journey of self-discovery and adventure into the wilderness. The narrative captures her interactions with nature as she explores the world, showcasing her deep connection
to the environment and the creatures within it. The beginning of the novel introduces Eepersip, a little girl living with her parents in a quaint cottage at the foothills of Mount Varcrobis. Feeling lonely, she convinces her family to create a beautiful garden, yet her yearning for freedom drives her to venture into the woods by herself. As she explores the flora and fauna, she feels a sense of joy and wonder, finding companionship in the wildlife, particularly a doe and her fawn. However, as she grows more distant from her home, her parents become increasingly worried, launching a search for their adventurous daughter, unaware of the magical world Eepersip has discovered. The vivid descriptions of nature set the stage for both Eepersip's journey and the challenges she may face as she grapples with her desire for independence.
