Note(s) : "Here is Cheryl, a tightly-wound, vulnerable woman who lives alone, with a perpetual
lump in her throat. She is haunted by a baby boy she met when she was six, who sometimes
recurs as other people's babies. Cheryl is also obsessed with Phillip, a philandering
board member at the women's self-defense nonprofit where she works. She believes they've
been making love for many lifetimes, though they have yet to consummate in this one.
When Cheryl's bosses ask if their twenty-one-year-old daughter, Clee, can move into
her house for a little while, Cheryl's eccentrically ordered world explodes. And yet
it is Clee--the selfish, cruel blond bombshell--who bullies Cheryl into reality and,
unexpectedly, provides her the love of a lifetime. Tender, gripping, slyly hilarious,
infused with raging sexual obsession and fierce maternal love, Miranda July's first
novel confirms her as a spectacularly original, iconic, and important voice today,
and a writer for all time. The First Bad Man is dazzling, disorienting, and unforgettable"
