Wind in Her Hair: Sapphic Journey to Discovery in 1950s California
About this ebook
Certain that her life is at a turning point but having no means to change the road she’s on, Irene is stunned by the gift of a beautiful touring car. Over Sissy’s strenuous objections and equipped with maps, sunglasses, and a full tank of gas, she sets out on a road trip all by herself for the first time in her life.
Irene has no goal in mind but to see something new. She gets her wish — and a great deal more.
Join Karin Kallmaker for a journey to California in 1952, where a woman yearns to escape from her conventional, constrained life, and a magical coin is determined to help.
"As a work of historical fiction, Wind in Her Hair is exceptional. Kallmaker fully captures the claustrophobia of women's lives in 1950s North America - a time when domestic drudgery and financial dependence put huge constraints on women's freedoms... Her feelings of being trapped, her hunger for fulfillment outside of the home, give this novella incredibly high stakes. From the opening scene I was rooting for Irene." - Lou Morgan's Reviews
