Description
In 1960s Oxford, Professor Henry Lytten is trying to write a fantasy novel that breaks away from traditional magic. His search for inspiration leads him to an unlikely confidante in his young neighbor Rosie. One day, while chasing her cat, Rosie discovers a doorway in the cellar of Lytten's house. She steps through and finds herself in a beautiful, idyllic land where Storytellers are highly valued. There, she meets a young man who is about to embark on a quest that may be his only chance at returning home. As Rosie navigates this new world, her life becomes intertwined with the story of an eccentric psychomathematician whose groundbreaking discovery will have far-reaching consequences. The boundaries between past and future begin to blur as these different lives and worlds become increasingly connected.
