This is a book that just might stir up dormant emotions from the summer of your own life, thoughts alternately welcome and discomfiting.Įvie, the narrator, is an outsider in her social milieu.
If possible, you should read this book in concert with another former American girl, or two, or seven, so you can discuss it as it unfolds. If you were once an American girl, you should read this book. It is a big fat book, just right for the lengthening days ahead. It manages to be at once languorous and intense, a page-turner that demands to be read slowly, a story bathed in the golden light of Long Island with a dark thrum like an ocean undertow. A perfect summer book, at once languorous and intense, a page-turner.Īnthropology of an American Girl is a perfect summer book.
