The long form / Kate Briggs. by Briggs, Kate (Teacher). Dorothy, a publishing project, 2023. Call #: FICTION BRI Subjects New mothers -- Fiction.   Mother and child -- Fiction.   Books and reading -- Fiction.   Thought and thinking -- Fiction. Series Dorothy, a publishing project (Series) ISBN:  9781948980210 (trade pbk.) Edition:  1st U.S. ed. Description:  447 p. : ill. ; 18 cm. Notes:  "A novel"--Cover. Bibliography:  Includes bibliographical references. Summary:  Kate Briggs' debut novel--the follow-up to her acclaimed This Little Art--is the story of a young mother, Helen, awake with her baby. Together they are moving through a morning routine that is in one sense entirely ordinary--resting, feeding, pacing. Yet in the closeness of their rented flat, such everyday acts take on epic scope, thoughts and objects made newly alive in the light of their shared attention. Then the rhythm of their morning is interrupted: a delivery person arrives with a used copy of Fielding's The History of Tom Jones, which Helen has ordered online. She begins to read, and attention shifts. As their day unfolds, the intimate space Helen shares with her baby becomes entwined with Fielding's novel, with other books and ideas, and with questions about class and privilege, housing and caregiving, and the support structures that underlie durational forms of codependency, both social and artistic.
