Hello all!
I am in desperate need of literature that centres around the female coming of age within clinical, institutional or small high pressure environments, such as Boarding School.
Especially diary-esque texts.
I need different ways that young girls grasp and make sense of the reality and strange environments they find themselves in.
Im reading Melissa Febos girlhood essays, but think as if Cassie from skins had published her diary.
Or the German book Crazy by Benjamin Lebert.
I don’t shy away from really graphic testimonies. Im really interested in the way that children understand their environments and especially in girlhood with trying to grasp their sexuality and self-design performatively.
Annnnny pointers GREATLY appreciated. Or if you yourself would like to have a chat about your experiences, please reach out!
THANK YOU
