In this twisting time-travel thriller, a woman faints on the eve of her wedding-and awakens at the turn of the century in her grandmother's body . . . The night before she is supposed to get married, Shay Garrett has no idea that a glimpse into her grandmother's antique Chinese mirror will completely transform her seemingly ordinary life. But after a bizarre blackout, she wakes up to find herself in the same house-but in the year 1900. Even stranger, she realizes she is now living in the body of her grandmother, Brandy McCabe, as a young woman. Meanwhile, Brandy, having looked into the same mirror, awakens in Shay's body in the present day-and discovers herself pregnant. As Rachael-the woman who links these two generations, mother to one and daughter to another-weaves back and forth between two time periods, this imaginative thriller explores questions of family, identity, and love. Courageous, compassionate Shay finds herself fighting against the confines of a society still decades away from women's liberation, while Brandy struggles to adapt to the modern world she has suddenly been thrust into. The truth behind this inexplicable turn of events is more complex than either woman can imagine-and The Mirror is a tribute to the triumph of the female spirit, even in the face of seemingly insurmountable obstacles. "What happens will surprise you. In the meantime, settle down for a good read." -The Denver Post

I first bought this book when it came out in 1978, and for 30 years I've bought countless more copies: for my friends, my daughter, my niece, & several more for me as I "loaned" my copy out. It continues to be my favorite time-travel/historical/adventure/romance novel. Yes, it has it all! I will continue to recommend The Mirror for another 30 years.

Loved This Book!
I first read this book when I was in high school, and I never forgot it. I've been searching for a copy for years now, and I'm thrilled to have finally found it!

An Old Favorite!
Do you like books about time travel or inhabiting the body of another person? Do you enjoy reading about sympathetic and sometimes eccentric, but always engaging characters? How about storylines with clever and creative, yet believable, plot twists? Are you interested in the Victorian era or the 1970s? What about life in Boulder and Nederland, Colorado in these two time periods? This book has it all and manages to be a page-turner as well! This title is highly recommended; the only problem you'll have is in putting it down once you start reading. Enjoy!

Great book, great read!!
The Mirror, by Marlys Millhiser has been one of the books I never want to find myself without! Although it can read as slightly dated, it pulls the reader in on a fascinating travel down memory lane, topped off with a bunch of what ifs? This book has been around since the 1970s, and with good reason. It has become one of the best friends I could have and I find myself loaning my copy to people all the time! This is definately a 'timeless classic' in my world!
