Transports us deep into the 1950s and straight into the heart of a young woman struggling to find her true self. Her rich father calls his beautiful, brainy daughter "Princess." Her glamorous-and often jealous-mother calls her "Princess Priss." Her Big Man On Campus boyfriend calls her his fiancée, until, inexplicably, she calls off the engagement. Only Gloria seems unsure of her true identity. She sees only a dark, rat-faced, neurotic intellectual hiding behind the facade of a clothes-horse debutante.
