Consider Little, Big by John Crowley. Recommended by 5 sources.
“John Crowley's Little, Big reads like a long, lyrical fairy tale folded into a family chronicle; its pleasure is in language, detail, and the slow blurring of ordinary life with uncanny edges. Scenes arrive as accumulative tableaux rather than tight plot turns, so what works best is mood and layered atmosphere rather than clear action. The main limitation is the book's fondness for digression and ornate sentences, which can stall momentum and frustrate readers who prefer fast plots. Best tackled in measured chunks so images have time to settle.”
