Yonebayashi, with his apparent affinity for semi-obscure British, female
young - adult
novelists, has found his source material in Mary Stewart's The Little Broomstick, originally published in 1971, which exists both chronologically and conceptually
between Alice in Wonderland and Harry Potter.
Meanwhile, in Queens, a wormhole opens
between the worlds of the jinn and humans in the bedroom of Jimmy Kapoor, a
young wannabe graphic
novelist.
