Recalling an early suicide attempt, a grandmother's gift of violets, visiting a famous poet's grave, and mourning the loss of a heron, the speaker of these poems wonders why: \"I love life\/but sit with bones.\" Throughout the collection the speaker as well as the multi-faceted characters of others such as Ophelia, Camille Claudel, and Anne Sexton, court despair, transcendence, and the hope of survival through poems both tough and tender. Doll is a meditation on despair and the resilience of the \"indestructible\" heart.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 28\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.06 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 15, 2020\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47959406477533,"sku":"9781733768368","price":15.55,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0811\/9867\/8237\/files\/NafSxZV4FG9781733768368.webp?v=1779699173","url":"https:\/\/handfulofbooks.com\/products\/doll-paperback-1","provider":"Handful of Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
