Book Overview

An intensely erotic story of a young woman's sexual and psychological odyssey "a provocative tour through the dark side". (Vanity Fair)

Was it the bourbon or the dye fumes that made the pink walls quiver like vaginal lips?

A modern cult classic as startling, original, and vital as it was when first published at the height of the grunge era, Darcey Steinke's sensational Suicide Blonde has lost none of its raw charge.

Jesse is a beautiful twenty-nine-year-old adrift in San Francisco's demimonde of sexually ambiguous, drug-taking outsiders, desperately trying to sustain a connection with her bisexual boyfriend Bell. She becomes caretaker and confidante to Madame Pig, a grotesque, besotted recluse. Jesse also meets Madison, Pig's daughter or lover or both, who uses others' desires for her own purposes, and who leads Jesse into a world beyond all boundaries.
