Josephine Alibrandi lived her entire adult life with her mother and grandmother. Now the heroine will have to finish her last year at a Catholic school. You won’t find stricter mentors than nuns, but it seems that this will not prevent men from appearing in Josie’s life. Josephine is torn between the old-fashioned foundations of her Italian grandmother, the worldly wisdom of her mother and boys who cannot be understood in any way. This year, she will fall in love, reveal old family secrets - and be free. Told with wonderful warmth and humor, winning multiple Australian literary awards and becoming a feature-length film, this story will make you laugh and cry, worry and remember.
