A story about this — 3 years ago
The title of this story means ‘Girl with nine wigs’ and it’s the story of a Dutch girl, Sophie, who discovers she has cancer. The treatment makes her feel so bad she can hardly believe it, and worse: makes her hair fall out. She starts with one wig and ends with nine; with each wig other traits of her personality come to the foreground. Foxy Sue, tempting Bébé, sweet Daisy, mysterious Oema; all part of Sophie, and yet all different.
She describes the vomiting with as much ease as trying to have sex while keeping a wig on, and her fantasies about doctor K. are amazing.
Very well written, definitely recommended!
