The Hearing Trumpet is the story of 92-year-old Marian Leatherby,
who is given the gift of a hearing trumpet only to discover that
what her family is saying is that she is to be committed to an
institution. But this is an institution where the buildings are
shaped like birthday cakes and igloos, where the Winking Abbess and
the Queen Bee reign, and where the gateway to the underworld is
open. It is also the scene of a mysterious murder. Occult twin to
Alice in Wonderland, The Hearing Trumpet is a classic of fantastic
literature that has been translated and celebrated throughout the
world.
