Summary "The Seaside Sibyl; Or Leaves of Destiny: A Fortune Teller in Verse" by Anonymous is a whimsical collection of poetry written in the late 19th century. This book serves as a playful fortune-telling guide that delivers predictions and insights into love and life, crafted in a lighthearted and lyrical verse. It captures the essence of the time, reflecting the cultural fascination with fortune-telling and the seaside leisure lifestyle of that era. In this engaging compilation, the reader is introduced to the concept of drawing fortunes from numbered slips, each corresponding to a poem that reveals potential future encounters and romantic prospects.
