Introducing the Collins Modern Classics, a series featuring some of
the most significant books of recent times, books that shed light
on the human experience – classics which will endure for
generations to come. That girl didn’t want to die. She just
wanted out of that house. She wanted out of that decorating scheme.
The five Lisbon sisters – beautiful, eccentric and, now, gone –
had always been a point of obsession for the entire neighbourhood.
Although the boys that once loved them from afar have grown up,
they remain determined to understand a tragedy that has defied
explanation. The question persists – why did all five of the
Lisbon girls take their own lives? This lyrical and timeless tale
of sex and suicide that transforms and mythologizes suburban
middle-American life announced the arrival of one of the greatest
American novelists of the last thirty years. ‘A flare from my own
secret world, all the inchoate longings and obsessions of being a
teenager somehow rendered into book form’ Emma Cline, author of
The Girls
