The Wellington Alternate is a New Zealand Magical Realism novel where, ever since an egg had devoured her, eighteen-year-old Merinette Dace Nadean wants to escape her destiny. She longs to be an academic instead of continuing in her family's century-old position in maintaining the various surreal entities called Fiction.
Merinette, as stubborn as she is, refuses, eager to prove that she is more than the talents she was born with. She wants to turn her love for books into an alternative way to help her family rather than confronting the surreal head-on. And, when an opportunity arises in a dingy car park, Merinette will do anything to achieve her goal.
