In the fog-drenched heart of London, Dr. Valerian Bane offers a unique therapy. Women haunted by unspeakable traumas seek him out, desperate for the solace he offers. "Hysteria," they called it, a disease of the female mind. But for the women of Victorian London, it was an imprisonment of their bodies. They say he can mend a broken spirit, banish the shadows that cling to a woman's soul. Yet Dr. Bane's methods are unorthodox, his cures unsettling, and his thirst for justice runs deeper than anyone could imagine. His treatment? Unconventional. His success rate? Undeniable.

“Only someone who deeply loves and understands the Metropolitan Museum could deliver such madcap, funny, magical, tender, intimate fables and stories.” —Maira Kalman, artist and bestselling author of The Principles of Uncertainty From a writer who worked at the Metropolitan Museum for more than twenty-five years, an enchanting novel that shows us the Met that the public doesn't see. Hidden behind the Picassos and Vermeers, the Temple of Dendur and the American Wing, exists another world: the hallways and offices, conservation studios, storerooms, and cafeteria that are home to the museum's devoted and peculiar staff of 2,200 people—along with a few ghosts. A surreal love letter to this private side of the Met, Metropolitan Stories unfolds in a series of amusing and poignant vignettes in which we discover larger-than-life characters, the downside of survival, and the powerful voices of the art itself. The result is a novel bursting with magic, humor, and energetic detail, but also a beautiful book about introspection, an ode to lives lived for art, ultimately building a powerful collage of human experience and the world of the imagination.

"Tell me about them", she says. "Well, then let me start at the end, lead you through the hinterlands. Here these characters have space to unfold, and I can study them at my leisure, as if they were special statues in a museum. I am the curator of this exhibition, let me show you around. In 60 pages I'm going to introduce you to this little world about entering adulthood and all the obstacles in-between, about sexual desires, and your own identity, about what it really means to grow up, and finally how not to compromise who you truly want to be. So, I invite you to let yourself fall into insanity, beauty, and a daydream again."
