{"product_id":"9781910695371","title":"The Doll's Alphabet - Camilla Grudova","description":"Surreal, ambitious and exquisitely conceived, The Doll's Alphabet is a collection of stories in the tradition of Angela Carter and Margaret Atwood. 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.","brand":"Camilla Grudova","offers":[{"title":"192 pages \/ 14\/02\/2017 \/ Modern \u0026 contemporary fiction (post c 1945)","offer_id":57418011836791,"sku":"9781910695371","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0682\/9454\/1624\/files\/9781910695371.jpg?v=1788028010","url":"https:\/\/gulpfictionbooks.com\/products\/9781910695371","provider":"Gulp Fiction","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
