博客來Joy Summerfield, born in the council flats of the optimistically-named Pleasant Lane, struggles with the tension between her duties at home and her own yearning to discover a greater meaning and purpose for her life.
With her best (and only) friend Fear, who also happens to be the anthropomorphisation of fear itself, she leaves home and travels in a conveniently flying boat to Frieland, a land in the clouds where one is free to find what truly makes them happy.
Through this journey she meets many people who feel they have solved this lifelong conundrum, and she may discover that there are few things more dangerous than someone else’s dream for your life. She will have to confront her fears, her hopes, her past, and her future in order to discover what, and who, Joy really is.
