The Female Persuasion

Greer Kadetsky is a shy college freshman when she meets the woman she hopes will change her life. Faith Frank, dazzlingly persuasive and elegant at 60 and a central pillar of the women's movement for decades, is a figure who inspires others to change the world and make the most of themselves. Upon hearing Faith speak for the first time, Greer-- madly in love with her devoted boyfriend, Cory, but still full of longing for an ambition that she can't quite place-- is awestruck.

As Faith leads Greer down the most purposeful path of her life-- and as it winds toward and away from her meant-to-be love story with Cory, and interferes with her post-college bond with her female best friend-- Greer must question whether her idolatry is founded. Where is the line between the personal and the public? Where does Faith end, and where does Greer begin?
