Description
About the Book
Dorothea Dodds has been living unnoticed for 59 years. In the shadow of an absent and problematic brother, she is the one who takes care of her parents. She is a daughter, a secretary, a housewife and an invisible adhesive that holds it all together. She is, without a doubt, the ideal person that anyone would want to leave in charge of her house during the summer holidays. And one day, when she needs to escape from everything, that's precisely what she decides to do. With the help of her English cousin, Mary Lebone, Dorothea gets a job looking after houses and pets throughout the English countryside, and in these glimpses into other people's lives she finds clues to her own. With prose that follows in the footsteps of Natalia Ginzburg or Iris Murdoch, Life in Miniature is a travel book where the path is traveled inside: Dorothea crosses the fields of England while retracing key episodes from her past and learning to live in your present.About the Author
