An Italian Adventure: Gender Identity. Family. Italy. Memoir. Inhaltsangabe

ITALY, 1987. ONE DISCOVERY. TWO OUTCASTS. THE SUMMER THAT WILL CHANGE EVERYTHING.

Lee is a devout eight-year-old tomboy whose carefully ordered world is shaken on the eve of her First Confession. When her nemesis, Nico—a Sicilian transplant as aggressive as he is lost—uncovers an abandoned adult magazine, it triggers a firestorm of shame and questions about an identity Lee doesn't yet have a name for.

Bound by secrets in a rigid society, these two outcasts must find the courage to exist beyond expectations. This poignant "Own Voices" journey is a nonbinary Anne of Green Gables set against the vibrant, complicated backdrop of 1980s Italy.

THE LISTENING EXPERIENCE:

  • Character-Driven Performance: Hear the distinct voices of a colorful cast of characters, from the sharp-tongued Sicilian Nico to the rigid figures of the local community.
