'Lost Lambs' Puts Teenage Girls in Control

Twenty-nine-year-old Madeline Cash is, according to NYLON magazine, a “literary it-girl” and one of the darlings of downtown Manhattan’s so-called Dimes Square alt lit scene. This is a cohort of young writers who are trying to find a new literary voice in this age of social and technological fragmentation and distraction. As such, it’s somewhat inevitable that her debut novel Lost Lambs has been hailed as one of the buzziest publications of the year.
