This deeply moving first novel maps the landscape of girlhood and the intimate terrain of the family in haunting, luminous prose. In WHAT GIRLS LEARN, Karin Cook challenges traditional notions of family and femininity with both humor and wisdom, reminding the reader that what seems secure is never entirely safe, and that growing up means learning to love even in the face of loss. Fine, in fine, mylar-protected dust jacket. K.
