Description

A mystical doll's house draws people together – across the country, and across time. With a love story at its heart, weaving multiple time periods and perspectives, The Miniscule Mansion of Myra Malone is the magical debut novel from Audrey Burges.

Once upon a time there was a house . . .

From her attic in the Arizona mountains, thirty-four-year-old recluse Myra Malone blogs about a miniature mansion - a dolls' house - which captivates thousands of readers worldwide. Myra herself is tethered to the Mansion by a strange magic she can’t understand - there are rooms that appear and disappear overnight, music that plays in its corridors.

Across the country, Alex Rakes, the thirty-four-year-old heir of a furniture business, encounters two Mansion fans trying to recreate a room. Alex is shocked to recognize his own bedroom in minute scale. The Mansion is his family’s home, handed down from the grandmother who disappeared mysteriously when Alex was a child. Searching for answers, Alex begins corresponding with Myra. Together, the two unwind the lonely paths of their twin worlds - big and small - and trace the stories that entwine them, setting the stage for a meeting rooted in loss, but defined by love.

'Lively, stylish, and full of heart. The Minuscule Mansion of Myra Malone is decorated with gorgeous wordsmithery and magical trimmings, and I loved every minute spent inside.' - Sarah Addison Allen, bestselling author of Other Birds

'[It is] a mystical, poignant tale about loneliness, loss and love.' - Woman's Own

'Absolutely charming and haunting in equal measures, a beautifully written love story' - Taleen Voskuni, author of Sorry, Bro

'A refreshing and unique entry into the genre of mystical realism. Perfect for fans of Sarah Addison Allen and for all book lovers searching for a fantastic read.' - Karen White, bestselling author of The Shop on Royal Street
