The Girls is a 2016 debut novel by American author Emma Cline. It is loosely inspired by the Manson Family and the murder of actress Sharon Tate.[1]
The majority of the novel, set in 1969, focuses on 14 year old Evie Boyd, who, feeling isolated and unloved, spends her summer on a ranch with a group of teenage girls devoted to an aspiring musician named Russell Hadrick.
