Walter de la Mare's Memoirs of a Midget is one of the strangest and most enchanting works of fiction ever written. It is a tour de force; a grown man's fully imagined and convincing impersonation of a young woman between two and four feet tall. Miss M, the narrator of these fictional memoirs, is a diminutive young woman with a ' passion for shells, fossils, flints, butterflies, and stuffed animals'. Miss M. tells of her early life as a dreamy orphan and, in particular, of her tempestuous twentieth year - in which she falls in love with a beautifal and ambitious full-sized woman and is courted by a male dwarf. Concluding that she must choose either to simply tolerate her difference or grow callous to it, Miss M. resolves to become independent by offering herself up as a spectacle in a circus.
