Touching and familiar but wholly original to me.
In it, we follow the life of a young wind-up girl who, presumably, lives in the house of a master modeller.
Her world is a quiet one but when the carnival train pulls in she is swept up in the romance of joining them and exploring her world.
But life is seldom as simple as that. For every new beginning, something must end. In this case, it is the guilt of leaving her family behind.
I loved the warmth and humanity of this story.
The author is extremely talented.
Highly recommended.
