Summary

Smoky Barnable is an anonymous young man who travels by foot from the city to a place called Edgewood--not found on any map--to marry Daily Alice Drinkawater, as was prophesied. This is a story of four generations of a singular family, living in a house that is many houses on the magical border of an otherworld. It is a story of fantastic love and heartrending loss; of impossible things and unshakable destinies; and of the great Tale that envelops us all.
