Emma Cline — Girls the Exp. Emma Cline

Paperback; 1e druk, 1900; Random House Large Print; 300pp.; Puntgave paperback met fris en schoon binnhenwerk. Slechts rest van prijsstickertje op achterplat. -- Conditie: Als nieuw; GIRLS, their vulnerability, strength, and lust to belong, are at the heart of this un-put-downable first novel about Evie, now an adult, looking back at a teenage summer during the violent end of the 1960s. Evie Boyd is desperate to be noticed. In the summer of 1969, empty days stretch out under the California sun. The smell of honeysuckle thickens the air and the sidewalks radiate heat. Until she sees them. The snatch of cold laughter. Hair, long and uncombed. Dirty dresses skimming the tops of thighs. Cheap rings like a second set of knuckles. The girls. And at the centre, Russell. Russell and the ranch, down a long dirt track and deep in the hills. Incense and clumsily strummed chords. Rumours of sex, frenzied gatherings, teen runaways. Was there a warning, a sign of things to come? Or is Evie already too enthralled by the girls to see that her life is about to be changed forever?; Engels; ISBN10: 0812989864, ISBN13: 9780812989861
