Description

The inspirational Korean bestseller for fans of The Alchemist and The Midnight Library, a soul-stirring tale set in a magical laundry- while your clothes are being washed, have your bad memories cleansed. The Top Five Korean bestseller for fans of WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR IS IN THE LIBRARY and THE ALCHEMIST. The comforting tale of a magical laundry that blooms into existence one night, and how its enigmatic owner must learn to find her own peace before she can help others. We're a mind laundry. We wash the stains from your heart. When young Jieun accidentally misuses her powers, causing her entire family to vanish, she vows to keep living over a million lives in search of them. One night, in the village of Marigold, flanked by the city and the sea, she brings the Marigold Mind Laundry into existence. Its service - to remove the darkest stain from anyone's heart. Jieun listens while unhappy memories transfer as stains onto a T-shirt. After a spin in the washing machine, the stains transform into red petals that soar in the air. We meet five wounded souls- a frustrated young filmmaker; a spiralling social-media influencer; a mother who has discovered her husband's other family; a young woman two-timed by her lover; a talented photographer and victim of bullying, who escapes into a mundane job. As Jieun helps each to move on, she learns how the will to heal is not a rare and extraordinary gift, but a power in us all, if only we are open to looking. Joyous and empowering, MARIGOLD MIND LAUNDRY has already demonstrated its power to move the hearts of thousands of readers. As we laugh, wonder and grow, we too learn how to tap into the positivity and magic that lies in us all. Korean readers adore MARIGOLD MIND LAUNDRY- 'A life-changing novel' ***** 'A book that makes me reflect on my life' ***** 'Even better when you read it with a loved one' ***** 'I took leave from work because I needed to finish it in one sitting' *****
