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. As startling, original, and vital as it was when first published at the height of the grunge era, \u003ci\u003eSuicide Blonde\u003c\/i\u003e is an intensely erotic story of one young woman's sexual and psychological odyssey and a modern cult classic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDarcy Steinke\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of five novels including \u003ci\u003eSister Golden Hair\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eJesus Saves\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eUp Through the Water\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eMilk\u003c\/i\u003e, and a memoir, \u003ci\u003eEaster Everywhere\u003c\/i\u003e.
