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.
