Out of nowhere, every agent in the Portland area wants to represent her. But Lou doesn't care for fashion, nor does she wish to be seen. Fresh out of high school, Lou's plan is to spend the summer taking photographs and hoping to catch the attention of Ivy, her close friend and secret crush. But when an afternoon hiking trip ends in a tragic accident, Lou finds herself lost, ridden with guilt, and unsure how to connect with her friends. Determined to find a purpose, Lou steps into the dizzying world of modeling auditions, commercial shoots, shockingly expensive haute couture, and runways in New York, Paris, and Milan. It's a whirlwind of learning how to walk, how to command her body and its movements, and how to manage her newfound fame. But in the dazzling flash of the camera and the thrill of seeing her face giant-size on billboards, Lou begins to worry that she's losing her identity-as a person, as an artist, and as a young woman still in love with the girl she left behind. A sharply observed and intimate story of grief and healing, doubt and self-acceptance set against the intense hyper-image-conscious industry of modeling and high fashion, Body Grammar shines with the anxieties of growing up and the often heartbreaking beauty of pursing love"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Models (Persons) $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Lesbian fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Romance fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Novels. $2 lcgft 941 $a 6 952 $l SFPH074 $d 20240314024136.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20231012030358.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20221005014512.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20220903010336.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20220902010715.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20220618010147.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=F3A2C01EEECB11EC9C630DEB48ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
