Description: "1988: sex, drugs, & punk rock are rampant in Little Heart, a small college town in upstate New York. The backdrop of picturesque mountain vistas and farmlands sharply contrasts with the twisted and destructive social scene below. Market Street, the main hangout of the punk community, is a hotbed of musical innovation and social deviation. The story unfolds as four young women are confronted with the challenge of coming of age in a precarious subculture that demands that they either submit to victimization or become perpetrators themselves"--Back cover.
