Sylvia Waugh

    January 1, 1935

    Sylvia Waugh crafts stories that infuse the world with magic and dreams, aiming to counter a perceived excess of cynicism and a deficit of wonder. Her narratives delve into the essence of humanity by exploring the lives of those who are not human, examining what it truly means to be alive. Waugh's writing serves as an antidote to the harshness she observes, offering a haven for dreamers and those who cherish their imagination. Her work prompts readers to consider the profound qualities that define our human experience.

      From the outside, 5 Brocklehurst Grove looks like an ordinary house - the windows are always clean, and the garden well tended. And from the inside, to hear the voices of the inhabitants, the Mennym family, you would think they were a perfectly ordinary family, too. But you'd be wrong, for the Mennyms are far from ordinary. The whole family shares an astonishing secret behind which it's hidden for forty years; a secret to which nobody has ever come close - until perhaps, now. When a letter arrives from Australia, the whole family is plunged into fear that, for the first time, their secret is about to be exposed . . .
