August, 1963; Alice, 14, an only child, and physically well developed, is home for vacation. Shes moody, silent, keeps a diary, and explores tactile sensations with broken eggs, candle wax, ear wax, vomit, urine, blood, and, perhaps, if the summer goes in one very possible direction, semen. Without her underpants, she walks about, rides her bike, and sits on the shore as the tide comes in. She drifts to her fathers sawmill and makes eyes at Jim, a 20-something hand with a lean body and a models face. What will Jim do, and does Alice want to do more than stare and fantasize? Meanwhile, pop music fills the air and the TV screen, and Alices parents have their own drama.

It seems that each time the American woman begins to veer toward feminism, mainstream magazines put her back in her proper place, portraying her as wife, mother, and consumer. Kitch (journalism, Temple Univ.) traces the early development of this trend, beginning in the 1890s with Alice Barber Stephens s American Woman series and ending 30 years later with the ideal families depicted by Norman Rockwell and Jessie Willcox Smith. In between, she considers such influential icons as the flapper, the vamp, the nurse, the girl graduate, and Charles Dana Gibson s eponymous representation of womanhood, who is tellingly called a girl, not a woman.
