The suburban wolf-pack had country-club manners…and motel morals —
There’s one in every town
Any girl can be a loner – and a loser – when she tries to climb the social ladder too fast. The way Jenny tried at the country club.
With Fred Mansfield, Jenny ‘qualified’ as a woman – but not as a club member.
With Lowell Hemper, Jenny made the club at last – at the price of her reputation.
With Kiki Winn, Jenny tried to flee her problem – by turning down the deviate pathway to forgetfulness.
The story of Jenny’s fall is not for the prudish or the squeamish. It is anovel that rips away the plush mask of suburban hypocrisy and exposes its sex-blackmail for all the world to see. Here at last is the whole true pattern of our sexual double standard.
Genre: Pulp
Subjects: Lesbian Sleaze

Comment
The Shame of Jenny was a Beacon-Signal paperback from Universal Publishing in 1963, later reprinted by Beacon and Softcover Library, and Google Books catalogs it under lesbian erotic literature. John Carver was one of several pen names of the American writer Richard M. Gardiner, who also wrote as Clifford Anderson and Richard Orth; under the Carver name he published Campus Nymphs (1964) and Suburban Hotbed (1967). It is a typical example of the lesbian-themed sleaze paperbacks Beacon published for men in the early 1960s.
