Synopsis
Blueprints for Building Better Girls delves into the lives of an eclectic cast of archetypal female charactersfrom the high school slut to the good girl, the struggling artist to the college party girl, the wife who yearns for a child to the reluctant mothermapping Americas shifting cultural landscape from the late 1970s to the present day. Its interconnected stories explore the commonly shared but rarely spoken of experiences that build girls into women and women into wives and mothers. In revealing all their vulnerabilities and twisting our preconceived notions of who they are, Elissa Schappell alters how we think about the nature of female identity and how it evolves.
