Paper Dolls
Author: Katherine H. Adams
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 1476629390
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 239
Book Description
Paper dolls might seem the height of simplicity--quaint but simple toys, nothing more. But through the centuries paper figures have reflected religious and political beliefs, notions of womanhood, motherhood and family, the dictates of fashion, approaches to education, individual self-image and self-esteem, and ideas about death. This book examines paper dolls and their symbolism--from icons made by priests in ancient China to printable Kim Kardashians on the Internet--to show how these ephemeral objects have an enduring and sometimes surprising presence in history and culture.

Book Description
Olivia is a young girl from a working-class family background; she comes from a small countryside village, nestled away along with other villages, in the Hope Valley area of Derbyshire, in England. The story follows the events through her life over two decades. Beginning in 1967 as she is brought by an ambulance to a hospital, in Manchester, England, when she is losing an aborted baby, and she endures an inhumane and horrific experience at the hands of a sadistic doctor. Olivia's life then begins to moves forward when she joins a happy 'Hippy-Movement' crowd, before entering into a controversial marriage to a man many years her senior. Then a short time later she experiences with her husband, a very traumatic car accident, where at the hospital the attending doctor's prognosis, predicting that her life will soon be coming to an end!! But her body, soul, and willpower insist on fighting for her survival. A few years later she enters into a second doomed marriage. And in the following years that pass, Olivia's life seems to turn into a big 'ROLLER-COASTER-RIDE!' Now always filled with sex, drugs and rock & roll, as she clings to this wild, and crazy, hedonistic-lifestyle for her own emotional security. Until many years later, when taking an overall, view and stock of her life, which now seems to becoming so totally, out of her control, she finally decides that it's time for her to jump off, all of these fast-fun-filled-rides, which are taking her to nowhere. So after much soul-searching about what she does now really want in her life, she decides that it is time for a reconciliation with her second husband Alex. They decide to go to start a fresh new life, when they go to live together in North America, leaving all of her past behind her in England. So now finally at last Olivia, begins to enjoy the much-needed love of her husband and family, which deep down she had been craving for most of her life. Suddenly from somewhere one night out of the blue in the year of 1987, a deep, dark, hidden force in her life returns, turning twenty-long-lost-hidden-years, into a "FULL-CIRCLE!" Motivating her now to visit the world-down-under in Australia, forcing her to now confront and deal, with her dark, secret, hidden past, which tragically ends, with sad, dramatic consequences! "WHO IS OLIVIA?" The writer has portrayed in this woman's fiction novel a person that is as far removed from anything in Hollywood as possible!

The life of Olivia has been portrayed and written in colourful, vivid, imaginary, and detailed true to life form so that the readers can visualise Olivia, as a real true to life person, that they could possibly identify with in part. While at times understanding and feeling that some of the things that happened in her life, could also have possibly happened in their own. But no matter what trauma, hardship, heartache or crisis arrives in Olivia's life, she not only challenges it, grows from it and flourishes, she is also very determined to survive it all, whatever life throws her way. And the readers will soon realize, that no matter how tough Olivia's going gets, she will never give up, even when she feels that her world is crashing as it begins to crumble down all around her, she will keep on striving until she perseveres.
