“The masterpiece of one of young-adult literature’s greatest living writers.”—Booklist, starred reviewUsing a pillow book as her form, nineteen-year-old Cordelia Kenn sets out to w rite her life for her unborn daughter. What emerges is a portrait of an extraordinary girl who writes frankly of love, sex, poetry, nature, and, most of all, of herself in the world.
