The poems in Mrs. Dumpty are about a great fall, the dissolution of a long and loving marriage, but they are not simply documentary or elegiac. What interests Bloch is the inner life; how we are formed by our losses and our parents' losses, how we learn what we need to know through our intuitions and confusions, how we finally discover ourselves.
