Everything is mine and is taken from me. That's what it means to be a girl.
Highly acclaimed in Denmark, Girlbeast is a fearless, unsettling, and poetic reimagining of the Lolita narrative, where power shifts unpredictably, and desire and coercion become indistinguishable. In a world that fetishises girlhood, it asks whether a girl be blamed for internalising the roles imposed upon her? Can she wield her youth as power in a system designed to render her powerless?
With sharp, fast-paced prose and an addictive plot, Cecilie Lind crafts a daring examination of female agency, sexuality, and the complexities of consent. The novel evokes the idea of the girl as animal - a creature conditioned to be both docile pet and wild beast, torn between submission and rebellion, innocence and desire.
Brave, provocative, and unflinching, Girlbeast is a gripping, vital novel for our times.
