In \u003cem\u003eThe Doll\u003c\/em\u003e, thirteen of du Maurier's early shorter fictional works have been collected--each story written before the author's twenty-third birthday and some in print for the first time since the 1930s. Compelling tales of human foibles and tragic romance, the stories in \u003cem\u003eThe Doll\u003c\/em\u003e represent the emergence of a remarkable literary talent who later went on to create \u003cem\u003eJamaica Inn\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003e The Birds\u003c\/em\u003e, and other classic works.
