Cover design by Jacqueline Groag 'This crazy world whirled about
her, men and women dwarfed by toys and puppets, where even the
birds were mechanical and the few human figures went masked ...She
was in the night again, and the doll was herself' One night Melanie
walks through the garden in her mother's wedding dress. The next
morning her world is shattered. Forced to leave her rural home, she
is sent to London to live with relatives she has never met: gentle
Aunt Margaret, mute since her wedding day; and her brothers,
Francie, whose graceful music belies his clumsy nature, and the
volatile Finn. Brooding over all is Uncle Philip, who loves only
the puppets he creates in his workshop, which are life-sized - and
uncannily life-like.
