Joyce is eighteen, a freshman at a fashionable school for girls; suddenly all that matters to her is a woman twice her age. This beautifully written pulp novel from 1957 is widely considered a historic milestone for its openly lesbian, feminist content.

Includes an appendix of materials about the book and author, as well as an introduction by Naiad Press co-founder Barbara Grier. Part of the Little Sister's Classics series, which resurrects out-of-print gay and lesbian books from the past.
