A good happy girl : a novel / Marissa Higgins. by Higgins, Marissa. Catapult, 2024. Call #: FICTION HIG Subjects Women lawyers -- Fiction.   Lesbians -- Fiction.   Triangles (Interpersonal relations) -- Fiction.   Children of prisoners -- Fiction. ISBN:  9781646221974 (hc.) Description:  241 p. ; 22 cm. Summary:  Helen, a jittery attorney with a self-destructive streak, is secretly reeling from a disturbing crime of neglect that her parents recently committed. Historically happy to compartmentalize--distracting herself by hooking up with lesbian couples, doting on her grandmother, and flirting with a young administrative assistant--Helen finally meets her match with Catherine and Katrina, a married couple who startle and intrigue her with their ever-increasing sexual and emotional intensity. Perceptive and attentive, Catherine and Katrina prod at Helen's life, revealing a childhood tragedy she's been repressing. When her father begs her yet again for help getting parole, she realizes that she has a bargaining chip to get answers to her past. In her exploration of queer domesticity, effects of incarceration on family, and intergenerational poverty, Marissa Higgins offers empathy to characters who don't often receive it, with unsettling results.
