Summary:

"Girlfriend is a collection of poetic prose, stories about the girls and women who were important in Henning's life, beginning in childhood through her older years, including mentors, characters and authors whose writing was important to her. The collection of stories is a celebration of her friendships with women. One by one, the story emerges of a working-class girl who loses her mother as an adolescent, becomes a mother herself, as well as a poet, a novelist and a professor. In Henning's friendship world --the bohemian communities in Detroit and New York City-- one meets artists, poets, fiction writers, literary critics, activists, mothers, yoga practitioners and teachers, among many others."--from the publisher
