«How to Build a Girl» is Caitlin Moran's coming-of-age novel, published by Ebury Press in paperback (352 pages, in English).
In 1990, 14-year-old Johanna Morrigan humiliates herself on television and reinvents herself as Dolly Wilde, a gothic, hard-drinking, foul-mouthed version of herself. She wants to save her poor family by writing; at 16 she works at a music paper, reviews bands and has sexual adventures. But her alter ego has a fatal flaw: maybe records, posters and books aren't enough to build a girl.
First instalment of the «How to Build a Girl» series, published in 2014 and nominated for the Specsavers National Book Award 2014.
A read for those seeking humorous contemporary fiction and coming-of-age stories with a female protagonist.
Catherine Elizabeth Moran is an English journalist, broadcaster, and author at The Times, where she writes two columns a week: one for the Saturday Magazine, and the satirical Friday column "Celebrity Watch".
