Description
In The Aging Cheerleader's Alphabet, Jeanette Lynes has crafted a moving portrait of a woman whose humour and chutzpah challenge a world that sees her as a relic of another age. Part nostalgia, part cultural critique with respect to women's experience of aging, Lynes' Cheerleader does handsprings, walkovers and roundoffs over the very language that seeks to define her.
