"My fantasies were seedlings that sought a different soil from that in Skokie. I definitely wanted to plant myself in a new place.”
So continues the second part of the revolutionary *Scags Series,*which spans a woman's life from age 7 to 45, organized around the seasons of a year.
Scags at 18 is set in the fall, at Scags’ first semester at the College, in an unnamed New England college, where she writes of her adventures, the political, literary and sexual adventures of a young woman in 1969. Her first semester is filled with much that most young women confront, including a first love, sexual harassment, oversized personal ambitions and the longing for the family at home to be understanding and supportive of her new life.
Describing her life in her diary, she lives through her first semester in college in 1969--the age of peace marches, the Beatles, feminism and free love.
"I never thought that falling in love would also feel like that, that I had responsibilities.”
The Scags Series
Volume One: Scags at 7
Volume Two: Scags at 18
Volume 3: Scags at 30
Volume 4: Scags at 45
"I loved this book." - Marti
"I find it quite remarkable that Deborah Emin is able to take her original character, Scags at 7, and advance her to the age of 18 with her curious and plucky spirit intact." - Supyr, Goodreads
