Dubbed the \"Henry Ford of Natural History,\" by 1917 Craxton has become America's preeminent taxidermist. Into this magic box of a world-filled with eerily inanimate gibbons and bats, owls and peacocks, quetzals and crocodiles-wanders young Peg Griswood, daughter of Craxton's newest housekeeper. Part coming-of-age story, part gothic mystery, and part exploration of the intimate embrace between art and life, Joanna Scott's The Manikin is compulsively readable and beautifully written.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51737829703968,"sku":"NEW0312421389","price":19.58,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/71H7031noEL.jpg?v=1779574922","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/the-manikin-a-novel-0312421389","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
