{"product_id":"9781910695371-retail-the-dolls-alphabet","title":"The Doll's Alphabet","description":"Dolls, sewing machines, tinned foods, mirrors, malfunctioning bodies - many images recur in stories that are in turn child-like and naive, grotesque and very dark. In 'Unstitching', a feminist revolution takes place. In 'Waxy', a factory worker fights to keep hold of her Man in a society where it is frowned upon to be Manless. In 'Agata's Machine', two schoolgirls conjure a Pierrot and an angel in a dank attic room. In 'Notes from a Spider', a half-man, half-spider finds love in a great European city. By constantly reinventing ways to engage with her obsessions and motifs, Camilla Grudova has come up with a method for storytelling that is highly imaginative, incredibly original, and absolutely discomfiting. 'Marvellous. Grudova understands that the best writing has to pull off the hardest aesthetic trick - it has to be both memorable and fleeting.' - Deborah Levy, author of  Hot Milk","brand":"Book Grocer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48661426667739,"sku":"9781910695371-RETAIL","price":25.49,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/715101eb-da0a-4809-af32-95474ca5f3c8.jpg?v=1777062728","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/9781910695371-retail-the-dolls-alphabet","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
