Reviews
“Fitzgerald’s paper dolls, collected in a book by her granddaughter, reveal her to have been a talented, whimsical and ambitious artist…. the dolls retain an intimacy that’s more piercing somehow for being whimsical: playthings too gorgeous to touch… the genius of the dolls is close to heartbreaking.”
–Paula McClain,
The New York Times Book Review
