Bogeywoman
Jaimy Gordon
Named one of the best books of 1999 by the Los Angeles Times, Gordon’s novel takes on the difficult subject of a young girl coming of age and falling in love with an older woman, her psychiatrist.
A young lesbian named Ursula Koderer tells her story, beginning at Camp Chunkagunk and moving to the posh mental hospital where she is sent after an unfortunate ‘incident.’ Wherever she is, Ursula falls for devastating women, and she narrates her tale in a mixture of slang, poetic lyricism, and a highly original use of language.
