Description
A young woman teaching a class on feminism lives a double life as a submissive seeking a rotating cast of strange men to degrade and dominate her.
While teaching a high school summer course at a boarding school in Connecticut, Ms. S encourages her students to read seminal works of feminist autofiction while her own hunger for illicit encounters brings her closer and closer to forbidden temptation. As she is pushed to the boundaries of her own willingness to submit, she finds herself drawn to a fellow teacher with a spotty reputation.
Victim is Lynne Tillman’s Weird Fucks for the age of dating apps, a messy Gen Z novel where men are used and women seek something beyond them but end up going back for thrilling disappointment. An erotic misadventure of feminist disproportions.
Advance Praise
Praise for Lover Girl
"Funny, sharp, and infinitely voicey. If you’re looking for a sharp bite and a vivid stream-of-consciousness style, you’ll be seduced by Lover Girl." —Independent Book Review
"Moody and atmospheric, Lover Girl captures the malaise of twenty-something girlhood in all its messy splendor." —Daisy Alpert Florin, author of My Last Innocent Year
"Observing New York and the Hamptons through Sellew’s shimmering, witty prose feels like hanging out with a contemporary Eve Babitz. [Lover Girl] is a sharp, lovely, aching debut." —Katie Crouch, New York Times best-selling author of Girls in Trucks and Abroad
