Description
"As Jane's mother tours the world to support the family, Jane lives and goes to school in a Victorian mansion with her younger brother and their mendacious father who confines Jane's mother to a system of pneumatic tubes whenever she's at home. And then there's weirdly ever-present Aunt Finch, Milorad the gardener, and his rat Brutus. For Jane, this all seems normal until she suddenly gains access to the files for a lifetime of security-camera videos--her lifetime. A.S. King's ... surrealist [book] follows Jane's bizarre and brilliant journey to reconnect with her mother by breaking out of her shell and composing a punk opera"--,Provided by publisher.
