Somebody Should Have Scolded The Girl

Grab an Ameripass for one low fare and ‘ride the Dog’ across America with author Paula Coomer for a gritty, unflinching journey through some of the country’s most poignant and vulnerable moments: War. Racism. Women’s rights. The Sexual Revolution and more.

Stop off here and there at various crossroads, viewed through the eyes of Mercy Grace Hadley, Chipper Grube, Marlette Peel, Charlotte Dodge, and a cast of others, a community of loosely connected people in Kentucky and Indiana.

Emotional, but full of hope, Somebody Should Have Scolded the Girl holds an exacting, uncanny mirror to our current times.
