Review
"The emotional facts of this novel ring true. Jane Futcher has tried to present the confusing, terrifying dilemmas that accompany any step out of the narrow band of acceptable behavior that society tolerates." Dorothy Allison, author of Bastard Out of Carolina, in New York Native
"At last I've read a good book on a serious subject for a young adult that wasn't written by Judy Blume! In fact, I read the whole book thinking it was for me, an older adult, before I found out from the jacket it was really meant for my 11-year-old-but-mature-for-her-age daughter. Jane Futcher may be a first novelist but she's obviously a solid writer if she can produce a story that's interesting to both of us." Lynn Rogers, Noe Valley Voice
"The characterization is outstanding; the hurt, bewildered Jinx; her loyal roommate; and the smooth, calculating headmaster. Lexie is a superb portrait of a fascinating but unreliable and dangerous personality." The Horn Book magazine
"A good ear for dialogue and a good eye for a scene and a good memory for the sickening incomprehensions of adolescence." --Helen Vendler, professor, author and literary critic for the New York Review of Books, in a letter to the author
"Crush deals directly with the confusion and naïveté that first love and the blossoming of sexual feelings bring out in teenagers." --Bay Windows
From the Author
I was born on February 27, 1947, in St. Louis, Missouri, and grew up in Baltimore, Maryland. My first paid writing job was creating live, multi-media high school assembly programs for Rick Trow Productions in Philadelphia. In 1973 I moved to New York City to work at Harper & Row, Publishers, Inc., where I produced multi-media programs for school audiences. San Francisco was my next stop. There, I wrote Crush on a Hermes typewriter at an oak table by my window on Webster Street. Little, Brown and Company, published Crush in 1981. That same year, Holt, Rinehart and Winston published Marin: The Place, The People, a profile of Marin County, California, with photography by Robert Conover. From 1983 to 1995, I worked as a massage therapist, English teacher and freelance journalist, writing mostly for Plexus, the San Francisco Chronicle and The Slant, a Marin County LGBT newspaper that I helped launch and edit. In 1991, Avon Books published my second novel, Promise Not to Tell, a story about an unhappy teen-aged boy who helps a friend in desperate trouble, creating more trouble along the way but learning a lot about kindness, friendship and the criminal justice system. I joined the staff of the Marin Independent Journal in 1995, working first as an editorial writer and later a reporter. In 1997, Alyson Publications published Dream Lover, a novel about the improbable affair of two former school friends who fall in love as middle-aged women. My life took an unexpected turn in 1999, when my partner and I bought one hundred and sixty acres in the mountains of northern Mendocino County. We moved there permanently in 2004, leaving the suburbs behind and learning to love rattlesnakes, bears, coyotes, marijuana growers and each other. Women Gone Wild, released by Women Gone Wild Press in 2012, is the true story of our adventure. I'm very pleased to be publishing this new edition of Crush, with an introduction by author and psychotherapist Dr. Marny Hall. Crush was one of the first novels of our time to go inside the mind of an adolescent girl in the sexual thrall of another girl. Caught in an endless loop of expectation, shame and self-recrimination, Jinx Tuckwell ricochets between what society expects of her and her fear of losing her heart's desire. To say "no" to the seductive, passionate and unpredictable Lexie Yves becomes tantamount to denying the profound feelings that both trouble and excite Jinx. She can no more refuse Lexie that than she can flip off the stern and punitive headmaster who discovers their secret. So, enough about me. I'd love to know something about you and how you happened to read Crush. You can find me at janefutcher.com.
