Disappearing Debutantes - Meg Pokrass - Bog

In Disappearing Debutantes, disappearing and ever present "female beginners" come-of-age in fantasy and reality. As children, girls, teens, "new adults," middle-aged women, and old women, they keep having their debuts and going unnoticed. Erased by gender, time, age, and those they most want to see them, neglected females become strange in hopes of being loved, being listened to, being understood, and being seen.
Though society has no interest in allowing them to make a grand entrance on a life they keep trying to live anew, and though the bloom is long off the rose that never fully opened, each disappearing woman refuses to make a graceful exit or to blossom into the perfect flowery fem society wants her to become. Instead, she boldly celebrates her oddly transformative disappearance from a life that didn't go as planned by exploring a self-charted, self-made, surreal world of love, longing, lust, and lore.
