Doris Bourne appears briefly as a worker alongside Prax in the staging barn, where frustration gets the better of her composure. She is part of the practical effort surrounding the work there, remembered through a sharp gesture and a flash of exasperation. The book offers little more of her story, leaving her as a vivid glimpse of everyday strain amid larger events.
Description
Doris is a woman with thin white hair, its fine strands easy to disturb as she runs a hand through it. Her face is animated by irritation, and her gestures have an impatient, unguarded quality. The text gives no further detail about her build, features, or clothing, so her presence is best pictured as practical and candid rather than polished.
