In this unique blend of memoir and autobiographical fiction, Poirier-Bures chronicles what it was like to come of age in Halifax in the 1950s. In an era when the 'facts of life' were shrouded in mystery and the roles for young girls and women narrowly defined, growing up had its own extraordinary challenges. Being an Acadian in an English city added another layer of complexity that Nicole, the author's persona, navigates in her search for identity. Return to the world of the Halifax trolleys, Saint Patrick's Home for Boys, public dances at the Jubilee Boat House and more. Here, the personal and historical connect in a heady mixture of truth and fiction.
