The Azure Castle

To truly begin to live, you must know that you are dying.

Velancy Sterling, who is already twenty-nine years old, has lived her whole life with a domineering mother and an intrusive aunt, always in the shadow of a family that suppresses all her aspirations, judges her, and considers her an old maid. But everything changes with the doctor's diagnosis - she is dying, she has one year left to live. Now Velancy decides to live completely differently, she breaks the cage her family has built, defying conventions. Velancy transforms, discovers the world from new angles, breathes deeply. She runs away from home, moves in with a questionable person in the eyes of others, and cares for his sick daughter. Then she meets Barney Snaith, and the events become even more intense. Velancy finds her imagined "Azure Castle", where she had to mentally escape her whole life, in the real world.
