Haunted Houses (High Risk) - Tapa blanda

?One of the most influential, complex and enigmatic figures in modern American literature...her style is laconic and icy, like a hip Jane Austen? Scotland on Sunday ?One of the most interesting works of fiction in recent times... Fans of both truth and fancy should find nourishment here? LA Weekly ?In Haunted Houses, Lynne Tillman chronicles the loneliness of childhood and incipient womanhood, the salvation of friendship, and the neurotic chain that binds perpetually needy daughters to their perpetually self-absorbed parents? New York Times Book Review

The film noir version of growing up female. In uncompromising prose, Tillman tells the story of three girls, Grace, Emily and Jane, and their transition to womanhood. Colliding with culture, family and friends under dark and comic circumstances, Tillman presents three very contemporary lives in uncanny, disturbing and sometimes shocking terms.
