She knows that when the new doll wakes up she will be devoid of memories, won’t even know her own name and will be disoriented, but Ella vows to help her adapt to her new life. She has never had another doll to play with. When the Professor decides to make another doll Ella is excited.

She was “saved” from her human life and turned into a doll by the Professor.Įlla lives in the attic and has been conditioned by the Professor to never try to leave it. She has lived the past thirty years as a doll. “Slowly and silently, cries the dancing doll, meekly, angelically, she weeps for her soul.”Įlla used to be human, but she has no memories of that time. Once I read the description I was thrilled that the book sounded just as interesting as the book’s cover. In fact, I had decided that I wanted to read this book solely based on the cover design. Also, I love that the book title, along with the author’s name are inside scroll work. In fact, it looks like the two pieces fit tightly together with the doll flattened inside whenever it is closed. When you look closer, you realize that she is standing on a hinged piece of wood which is attached to a similar piece of wood located behind her. The choice of having the doll standing on a plush red heart that matches the colour of the doll’s dress mixed with the small black butterflies surrounding her gives a sense of something just not quite right about her surroundings.

The “doll” is stylized and disjointed with a black wind-up type key in its right side.
