A high-school sex scandal jolts a group of teenage girls into a new awareness of their own potency and power. The sudden and total publicity seems to turn every act into a performance, and every platform into a stage. But when the local drama school decides to turn the scandal into a show, the real world and the world of the theatre are forced to meet, and soon the boundaries between private and public begin to dissolve.

Work Description

A dazzlingly assured and bold novel revolving around a school sex scandal. An exhilarating and provocative novel about the unsimple mess of human desire, at once a tender evocation of its young protagonists and a shrew expose of emotional compromise.
