Synopsis

MAIDENHEAD is a series of chamber-fictions inhabited by a young woman named Alice. Linked in an oblique, dream-like way, these short, sharp stories describe Alice's survival in an everyday world of bizarre logic and strange emotions. A collection of allusive, absurdist, narrative episodes, which often resemble dream fragments.
