Blueprints for Building Better Girls
Elissa Schappell
A collection of eight interconnected stories that map America's cultural landscape from the 1970s to present day. Follow an eclectic cast of female characters as their vulnerabilities and experiences shape them into wives, mothers, and artists. Elissa Schappell twists preconceived notions of female identity, offering a provocative and darkly funny exploration into what it means to be a "good girl" or a "high school slut."
