City of Girls by Elizabeth Gilbert review – hymn to female desire | Fiction | The Guardian

Shared From Dlike

This tale of sexual awakening in 40s New York is sassy, warm and rich in period detail
Her last work of fiction, The Signature of All Things, was a historical novel about an independent young woman pioneering her way in the world of 19th-century botany, but it was also about articulating female desire in an age when well-bred girls did not have the language to do so. Now, in her third full-length novel, City of Girls, she puts that desire quite literally centre stage.
