About this book
"Rip Van Winkle" by Washington Irving is a short story published in 1819. It follows a Dutch-American villager who encounters mysterious strangers in the Catskill Mountains, drinks their liquor, and falls into a deep sleep.

Now an elderly stranger in his own home, Rip must navigate a world he no longer recognizes and reconcile with the life that continued without him.
