Lundy, as she now calls herself, travels back and forth throughout her adolescence, unable to choose between the independence and sense of personal responsibility she values at the Goblin Market and her emotional ties to her family. But once she’s back with them, she chafes at the societal expectations placed on girls, which feel more restrictive and arbitrary than any stricture of the Goblin Market. Frightened and sad, she runs home to the family she left behind. She learns to love the Goblin Market and the friends she makes there, but the happiness she discovers is balanced by the danger and sorrow she experiences. All of these qualities stand her in good stead when she discovers a door inside a tree that leads to the Goblin Market, a fairyland network of shops and stalls built on a complex architecture of debt and rules which must be obeyed. In the 1960s, Katherine Lundy is a quiet, observant little girl who likes to read books and follow rules. The fourth novella in the Wayward Children contemporary fantasy series tells the tragic history of Lundy, the backward-aging therapist of Every Heart a Doorway (2016).
