Haunted Houses by Lynne Tillman
Tracing the intertwined lives of three girls from childhood to uneasy adulthood, this coming-of-age novel unfolds in spare, jagged vignettes that render family life, friendship, sexuality, and loss with deadpan clarity. As they navigate midcentury American homes and schools, they are shaped by absence, maternal entanglements, and cultural scripts that linger like ghosts, imprinting desire and perception. Ordinary scenes turn uncanny as memory and social expectations haunt their attempts to make a self.
