House in the Cornflower Sea
Hurry! Only 2 Left in Stock!
The Office of Magical Youth keeps track of all children with supernatural abilities, trying to control them by keeping them in shelters away from ordinary people. One of these — the most mysterious — shelters was lurking on the island of Marsiyas in the middle of the vast ocean. This is where Linus Baker is posted with a top secret inspection. The inspector comes across children in the form of a forest spirit, a gnome, a wyvern, a werewolf... But despite their unusual appearance, which alarms and even scares ordinary people, the souls of these creatures grow and nurture humanity, sensitivity and benevolence, which are so lacking in today's cruel and the pragmatic world. However, these are not all the oddities of this mysterious shelter. Inspector Linus has yet to find out what lies behind the door of the abandoned basement and what secrets the director of the asylum Arthur Parnas hides, who is smartly dressed in colorful suits and checkered socks that constantly peek out from his boots. "A House in a Sea of Cornflowers" is a modern extravaganza that casually prompts us to think about the nature of good and evil, about the torment of choice, about happiness, injustice, and norms imposed on us by others.
