Karen McCarthy Woolf’s Top Doll
Karen McCarthy Woolf has just been shortlisted for the T.S.Eliot Prize for her latest poetry collection, Top Doll. Earlier this year, Yvonne Singh reviewed the book which she praised for its “stylish inventiveness”, breathing “new life into this well-worn trope… adding poignancy to the book’s ‘stranger than fiction’ tale of a heiress who preferred dolls to people.”
