Jezebel - A coming-of-age novel

Jezebel is a sixteen-year-old feminist looking to escape the oppression of her dysfunctional family. She desperately wants someone to love and believe in her. But like many naïve teens, Jezebel looks for love in all the wrong places. While seeking a piano teacher in Boston's happening jazz scene, partying in their clubs, and diving under waves on the beaches of Hull and Provincetown, our spirited Jezebel finds attention from a sweet-talking harmonica player, advice from a wise and handsome philosophy student at Harvard, and comfort from her Bubbie, an aging socialist. Yet two life-threatening run-ins bring her wild wanderings to an unexpected and frightening halt. Whether you are a teen today or have a forever teen soul, you will love the coming-of-age misadventures of Jezebel as she tries to make sense of her life during a stormy summer in the turbulent 1970's.
