A review by lindy_b
The Doll's Alphabet by Camilla Grudova

4.0

When I finished reading this book I gave it three stars, but four months later I'm going back and adding another star on the basis that specific images from the stories are still vivid in my mind to the point I can smell them. Grudova's aesthetics unmoored in history and geography but that nonetheless strongly evoke (to me anyway) the desolation of northern England between the World Wars are well developed and singular.
