Howl's Moving Castle |
|
|
|
By Diana Wynne Jones |
|
|
|
The Book |
|
|
|
The novel is about a young woman named Sophie Hatter, who is the eldest of three daughters living in the village of Market Chipping, in the magical kingdom of Ingary, where many fairy-tale tropes are accepted ways of life. Resigned to the "fact" that she will have no chance, as the eldest, of finding fortune, Sophie accepts that she will have a dull life running the family hat shop - until she is turned into an old crone by the Witch of the Waste, a powerful witch whom she inadvertently offends. Sophie leaves the sop and finds work as a cleaning lady for the notorious Wizard Howl, famed in her village for eating the hearts of beautiful young women.
Not to spoil a good read, I will end the description here, but in Corpus Noor, the sims are set at the end of the book, where everything has gone back to peace. |
