Growing up in this strange Victorian house with stairs marching into a wall and a moat meandering around the house is difficult for a child eager to be normal. That's not easy with a grandfather storming through the house brandishing a cane or with a grandmother who visits her bedroom at night thinking the child in the bed is her dead son. She gives up on happiness until an older cousin comes to live with the family and enriches her life with culture-and normalcy.
