An honest, explosive novel that turns conventional ideas of 1950s feminity upside down, The Girls in 3-B reveals in page-turning detail the hidden world of mid-century America, showcasing predatory Beatnick men, workplace intrigues, drug hallucinations, repressed family secrets, and clandestine lesbian trysts. From the hip-hang of a bohemian lifestyle to the sophisticated lure of a wealthy boss to the habbier —but taboo— security of a lesbian relationship these three women experience first-hand the adventures and the limitations that await spirited young working women who strike out on their own in a decidedly male-centered world.
