Invisible Girls releases next week! Before it comes out into the world, a peek at where it came from…
Inspiration
I wrote Invisible Girls during the 2020 pandemic. While Minneapolis rioted over the murder of George Floyd, I learned about young girls who seduced Nazis to murder them. These two realities collided in my mind to create a fiction where young girls decided to burn things down.
Vibes
Sisterhood, love, loyalty, exploitation, oppression, conspiracy, revolt, community, resistance. I think the images convey the vibes well.
Book
On an island governed by a rigid hierarchy, where the orchards and the people belong to the estate, Zara and Nadina turn away from watchful eyes, leave their childhood in the past, and form a forbidden bond and fierce alliance. With secrets unraveling about their families and lies surfacing, the girls harden their friendship into a conspiracy and make impossible choices to protect what becomes a revolt.
Fierce, intimate, and devastating, Invisible Girls is a story of rage, love, and the dangerous hope of reconstructing a broken world. COMING MAY 8TH!
