"Tibby: A novel dealing with psychic forces and telepathy" by Rosetta Luce Gilchrist is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around a young maid named Tibby, who possesses unique and changeable eyes that reflect her emotions and possibly hint at her otherworldly abilities. The narrative explores themes of class distinction, the struggles of women in society, and the evolving relationship between Tibby and her employers, particularly through the interactions with Mrs. Wylie." "The opening of "Tibby" introduces readers to the lively city life of Forest City, where Mrs. Elinor Wylie, the stylish and somewhat whimsical wife of Mr. Horace Wylie, notices a mysterious woman dressed in black, who often passes by with a child. This curiosity leads to a rich backstory involving Tibby, a nurse-girl employed by the Wylies, who is revealed to have a complex history. The narrative showcases Tibby's struggle between her humble origins and her aspirations for a better life in the bustling city, suggesting a deeper connection to psychic phenomena relevant to her character. As Tibby navigates her new environment, the seeds of telepathy and spiritualism, which will play significant roles in the narrative, are subtly planted."
