The Twins who Saved a City

Alva & Irva

"When Irva refuses to leave the house, Alva, in an attempt to return her to life, brings the city of Entralla into their shared home; she wanders its streets, observing, taking notes, measuring, and brings her findings to Irva, who painstakingly constructs a miniature Entralla. Their masterwork is a city whose scale accomodates both their desires, a city that comes to serve Entralla in a way its creators could never have imagined."--BOOK JACKET.
