Who is Enid Coleslaw from Ghost World and what is their importance? Ghost_World English & Literature Enid Coleslaw | Ghost World

Enid is an eighteen-year-old girl who has recently graduated from high school. Enid comes from a Jewish family, and her father changed his name from "Cohn" to "Coleslaw" before Enid was born. Enid spends most of her time mocking cultural figures and other people she knows. For instance, Enid frequently makes fun of her former classmates John Ellis and Melorra, and while John Ellis is often rude to Enid, Melorra does nothing to deserve such poor treatment from Enid. Melorra also does not seem to have a very good relationship with her father as she tries to avoid speaking to him or telling him about her problems. Enid also dislikes her second stepmother, Carol, whom Enid's father begins to date again near the end of the book.
