Are there any books like Alice in Wonderland about a person getting whisked away to a surreal world, with themes of being lost and returning home rather than having cool adventures? Preferably in an urban/suburban setting rather than a forest.
Pic related is similar except the magic shit starts happening in her hometown.

Here, have a short story I wrote that mostly fits the bill. It needs formatting/proofing/editing, but it's readable.
Kafka on the shore, and other murakami works

Sure, it's not great and, reading it back, I can identify sections that I feel, if I were to revisit the piece, would need a lot of work – particularly at the beginning – but I don't think it's entirely terrible. It's complete at least.
