Between Worlds: The Enchanted Doorway
Imagine discovering that your family home sits at the boundary between our world and another-a place where talking animals deliver prophecies and playing cards reveal your destiny. This is the reality for the Drinkwater family in John Crowley's masterpiece *Little, Big*. The novel follows Smoky Barnable, an ordinary man who travels on foot to marry Daily Alice Drinkwater at Edgewood, their peculiar family estate. What begins as a simple love story expands into a multi-generational saga spanning a century, revealing how the Drinkwaters' lives are interwoven with an ancient fairy realm that exists alongside our own. The novel's central metaphor-"the further in you go, the bigger it gets"-applies not just to physical spaces but to love, memory, and reality itself. Like Edgewood, which appears different from every angle, this story transforms with each perspective, creating an experience that lingers long after the final page.
