"A Girl's Life is a graphic melodrama of romance, crime, and passion in which girls 'struggle to survive the snares and pitfalls of contemporary life.' Darkly comic and fiendishly noir, the mood of this book is expressed in colorful prose, lurid collage, and wildly adventurous typography. This collaboration between visual poet Johanna Drucker and painter/book artist Susan Bee is an exciting synthesis of two distinctive but sympathetic sensibilities which addresses adolescent angst in all of its fashionably gory details; 'accessory to a crime' takes on a whole new meaning in this book."-- Publisher's website
