What is Perfectly Secret : the Hidden Lives of Seven Teen Girls about?

<p><i>Seven essays from the heart.</i></p> <p>"When I was sixteen years old I had secrets, all right. But my secrets were not exactly my own; they were the secrets of others." So writes Nan Germaine in <b>Perfectly Secret</b>, Susan Musgrave's fourth collection of essays written by women writers about their teenage lives.</p> <p>Nan remembers the loneliness of enduring her parent's secret confessions: her mother's unhappiness and her father's infidelity. For Anita Rau Badami, a mad aunt was her hidden shame. Meanwhile, a drunken father meant Lorna Crozier could never invite her friends home. And Cathy Stonehouse, who lived her life in fragments, found her secret self threatened in a not-so-innocent game of Truth or Dare.</p> <p>Heartfelt, disarmingly honest, at times painful, these essays eloquently capture the reality of adolescent life. <b>Perfectly Secret</b> is a testament to the axiom that life isn't always as it appears.</p>
