ok. a book club to serve as both a reminder for me and a portal for the reading pleasure of others...
#1 love of seven dolls (paul gallico)

it is a more a magical story than a psychological study. mouche's innocence is pitted against the brutality of the puppeteer in a tale of redemption.
'that night mouche reached a new depth of shame and humiliation as she dressed beneath the mocking eyes of the drab and went out of the room leaving them there. she thought again of dying, but was so confused she no longer knew how to die. for a time she wondered about in a daze through the streets, not knowing where she was going.' p.54
but if you dont do the whole reading thing, it was turned into the film lili
