‘She stops and nods at some of the patients come to stand around and stare out of eyes all red and puffy with sleep. She nods once to each. Precise, automatic gesture. Her face is smooth, calculated, and precision-made, like an expensive baby doll, skin like flesh-coloured enamel, blend of white and cream and baby-blue eyes, small nose, pink little nostrils-everything working together except the colour on her lips and fingernails…’
This quote inspired the design for the book cover- I used an image (with permission) of a doll, cracked and showing sinister machinery beneath.
