When her bosses ask if their twenty-year-old daughter, Clee, can move into her house for a while, Cheryls eccentrically ordered world explodes. And yet it is Clee-the selfish, cruel blond bombshell-who bullies Cheryl into reality and, unexpectedly, leads her to the love of a lifetime.Tender, gripping, slyly hilarious, infused with raging sexual fantasies and fierce maternal love, Miranda Julys first novel confirms her as a spectacularly original, iconic, and important voice today, and a writer for all time.
