商品簡介
Bestselling memoirist and psychotherapist Kerry Cohen (Loose Girl: A Memoir of Promiscuity) explores complicated female friendships in Girl Trouble. Beginning with her relationship with her sister Tyler Cohen, who illustrates the memoir, Kerry examines the many ways female friendships can affect a girl’s life. From bullying and failed friendships to competition and painful break ups, Girl Trouble brings forth a story of how one girl learned to navigate the many difficulties of girls' and women’s friendships. Girls and women everywhere will relate to the confusion, the hurt feelings, and they will also learn along with Kerry how she had to make better choices over the years.
作者簡介
Kerry Cohen is the author of nine books, including the bestselling Loose Girl: A Memoir of Promiscuity; Seeing Ezra: A Mother's Story of Autism, Unconditional Love; The Meaning of Normal; The anthology Spent: Exposing Women's Complicated Relationship to Shopping; and The Truth of Memoir: How to Write about Yourself and Others with Honesty, Emotion, and Integrity. She has appeared on Dr. Phil and Good Morning America, and has had her essays featured in The New York Times Modern Love series and The Washington Post.

Tyler Cohen is a cartoonist who uses autobiography and surrealism to explore parenthood and female experience in her book Primahood: Magenta. Her work has been published in the Ignatz-award winning anthology, Qu33r, The Feminist Utopia Project, What’s Your Sign, Girl? and online at MuthaMagazine.com.
One of the ways this book offers healing is through Cohen’s collaboration with the illustrator, her older sister Tyler. During “an ugly divorce, fraught with affairs and devastation and anger,” their mother chose the older sister as her ally and confidante, leaving a breach between the two sisters that they wouldn’t repair until adulthood. Her sister was her first true female friend and the first betrayal (of many). A brief, canny book that will make any girl who feels alone feel less alone.
