LULU is a fascinating heroine based on the equally fascinating life
of her creator. Come take the journey with LULU as she grows from a
precocious child in Charleston, S.C. into a co-ed at a college in
the North. A journey that comes with all of the heartbreak of first
love, motherly rivalry , brotherly caring and parental betrayal.
With a literary voice in the grand tradition of the great southern
writers, one of America's best-selling non-fiction authors Nancy
Friday, has in LULU, created a fascinating first work of fiction.
"A short novel of a young girl growing into adulthood, trying to
understand her Charleston home and world, jealous of her mother's
greater caring for her older brother, puzzling over her missing
father, realizing her early peer leadership is fading with her
friends dating and her own seeming rejection by boys, then seeing
her heroes collapse, and in the end understanding that one can only
rely on oneself to find friendship, love and closeness, a life in
the world. LULU is funny and sad, intriguing and ultimately
insightful, a book for each of us, a helpful and even important
read." - NetGalley "Loved this book! ...A great read about a young
girl coming of age. - Steve French, NetGalley Praise for Nancy

moving!" - The Washington Post
