Weird Little Freak Girls

Date of Award

Winter 2024

Abstract

A collection of short stories examining the psyche of young women at multiple periods of their adolescence, and delayed adulthood. Much emphasis is put on the relationship between the feminine and the "weird," and how women are often taught as children to obscure or deny any sort of strangeness that would result in them being deigned less palatable. These stories are about women who are either subconsciously fighting that tradition, or ignoring it outright.
