Human Croquet

Behind the Scenes at the Museum
has sat on my shelves for months;
now that I see how wonderful this
author is, I must read it, too.
“How can I trust reality when
the phenomenal world appears to
be playing tricks on me at
every turn?” Eliza tells us.
And, indeed, it does. Her mother
and father disappear. Time
shifts. Her brother changes
into a dog. Just what is real?
As Eliza says over and over,
“Appearances can be deceiving.”
A wonderful book I never would
have read had it not been for
BookCrossing. Recommended.
