Susan and Her Elders

About the Book

What impact does the intimate relationship between a young woman and her widowed father have on the balance of her life? How will men respond to her need for freedom? Susan and Her Elders is the story of a complex, unconventional woman and the men who used her梠r did she use them?

Susan Voigt is an uncompromising woman who defies social convention and sexual expectations, first to bring peace to her distraught father and later because to do otherwise would be against her nature. From the Midwest to California, from Minneapolis to Pittsburgh, Susan lives as she pleases, responsible to no one but herself. Too late does she discover how tragically difficult it would be for others to accept her for who she is.
