"You cannot escape your blood, Clodius."
Clod Iremonger hears a brass door handle saying, "Alice Higgs". And his special universal bath plug calls, "James Henry Hayward". The rest of the Iremonger family would rather the objects collected from the rubbish heaps of London stayed quiet.
But something is happening. The objects, piled up inside and around Heap House over generations, are not staying in their place. With the arrival of Lucy Pennant, everything shifts, and soon Clod will have to decide what belonging really means.

Edward Carey is a writer and illustrator born in Norfolk, England, during an April snowstorm. He has written plays for the theatre in Romania, Lithuania and London.
He is the author of OBSERVATORY MANSIONS, ALVA & IRVA, THE IREMONGER TRILOGY (HEAP HOUSE, LUNGDON and FOULSHAM), LITTLE and THE SWALLOWED MAN. He always draws the characters he writes about but getting the illustrations and writing to agree with each other takes him far too long.
He has lived in England, France, Romania, Lithuania, Germany, Denmark and the United States. He currently teaches creative writing at the University of Texas in Austin, which is not near the sea.
