About
Bearded Ladies
Bearded Ladies, a collection of short stories, was
Kate Grenville's first book. It was published in 1984.
They’re about women on the edges of things – women for
whom society’s idea of what a woman should be doesn’t work.
They know themselves to be something else altogether.
Their beards are invisible - they can pass in the eyes of others as
conventional women. But they
know themselves to be something less simple and more truthful. All
of these stories are unconventional in content and some experiment with
language and the short story form. |
