Query: The Dark and Mysterious Side of a Girl Coming of Age

These interconnected short stories are about the dark and mysterious side of a girl coming of age in a small, rural Canadian community. The mundane quality of puberty is intermeshed with sexual awakening. The girl has cold, unfeeling parents who try to instill the values of puritanism vs. sexual curiosity. The stories also deal with domestic violence and other secrets and shame of home life. The stories are all interesting but some require slow reading to really take them in.
