Both intimidated and fascinated by her classmates, Lee becomes a shrewd observer of, and ultimately a participant in, their rituals and mores, although, as a scholarship student, she constantly feels like an outsider. By the time she's a senior, Lee has found her place at Ault. But when her behavior takes a self-destructive and highly public turn, her hard-won identity within the community is shattered. Lee's experiences, complicated relationships with teachers, intense and sometimes rancorous friendships with other girls, an all-consuming preoccupation with a classmate who is less than a boyfriend and more than a crush, are both a psychologically astute portrait of one girl's coming-of-age and an embodiment of the painful and thrilling adolescence universal to us all. 650 0 $a Teenage girls $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Preparatory school students $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Self-destructive behavior $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Massachusetts $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Indiana $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Psychological fiction. $2 lcsh 655 7 $a Bildungsromans. $2 gsafd 856 42 $3 Contributor biographical information $u http://www.loc.gov/catdir/bios/random056/2004046858.html 856 42 $3 Publisher description $u http://www.loc.gov/catdir/description/random051/2004046858.html 856 41 $3 Sample text $u http://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0617/2004046858-s.html 941 $a 66 952 $l DPPE403 $d 20240611022758.0 952 $l GZPE631 $d 20240305023723.0 952 $l CJPC482 $d 20240202015825.0 952 $l MIPA194 $d 20240118010236.0 952 $l PQAX094 $d 20231214030146.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010013622.0 952 $l CMPE792 $d 20230629011556.0 952 $l 0YSX353 $d 20220315010333.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20210803014338.0 952 $l BWPD851 $d 20210714015431.0 952 $l NUPD663 $d 20201013114123.0 952 $l NHPD993 $d 20201013093915.0 952 $l NDPD953 $d 20201013090220.0 952 $l MMPE553 $d 20201013060630.0 952 $l MBPE423 $d 20201013045845.0 952 $l ETPD745 $d 20201013042856.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20200528032653.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20200110033513.0 952 $l AAPF906 $d 20190717012854.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20181107024646.0 952 $l KEPC896 $d 20181101010451.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20181002012158.0 952 $l NCPC953 $d 20180925021915.0 952 $l MXPG943 $d 20180720030428.0 952 $l NKPD993 $d 20180718034114.0 952 $l MGPD463 $d 20180718015842.0 952 $l NEPC953 $d 20180714030605.0 952 $l MNPB553 $d 20180713040904.0 952 $l RSPC135 $d 20180623051931.0 952 $l ALPE516 $d 20180523011353.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20180106012854.0 952 $l TAPB572 $d 20170304024832.0 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20160505032133.0 952 $l D8PD522 $d 20160407012737.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20160202041712.0 952 $l UKPD911 $d 20151120020654.0 952 $l CQPE926 $d 20150404022604.0 952 $l BYPB851 $d 20150214021321.0 952 $l JLPF081 $d 20150213084628.0 952 $l CXPC586 $d 20150213025110.0 952 $l T2PB062 $d 20140728154400.0 $m t2pb062 952 $l AXPF626 $d 20140716010246.0 952 $l YVPA232 $d 20130903111235.0 952 $l AGPE046 $d 20110629011900.0 952 $l GIPC251 $d 20110114011912.0 952 $l XWPC787 $d 20101009021541.0 952 $l BGPE251 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l BXPC851 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l CBPF522 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l ERPB725 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l FLPB224 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l GUPF501 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l HHPC765 $m F SIT $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l RXPC135 $m F $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l SDPB094 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l SPPE104 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l SZPC124 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l UDAX314 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l VFPB334 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l WHPE115 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l WSPF215 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l WXPD305 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l XBPE737 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l YDPC572 $d 20090701080000.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=2DF3CF562B0811DE986A0F08A8D7520A 994 $a 02 $b JIWInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
