“Toys have served as anthropomorphized symbols and stand-ins for childhood, growth and memory throughout the spectrum of Western contemporary culture,
from the threatening swan puppet of Angela Carter’s novel, The Magic Toyshop, to Rosebud, the sled symbolizing Charles Foster Kane’s lost happiness in the lm Citizen Kane. The tiny denizens occupying these images strive to bring their own personalities to life within the context of their magic realist surroundings.”
