Jedno ljeto u internatu

Jedno ljeto u internatu

Anton Disclafani

A confidential relationship gradually develops between Thea and the attractive director of the boarding school, which grows into something more...

During the Great Depression of the 1930s in America, fifteen-year-old Thea Atwell's family sends her to Yonahlossee, an elite girls' boarding school where, at least at first, the effects of the economic crisis are suppressed, and young girls are taught how to become "ladies". After a bad start, she manages to make friends with her peers. They all share a love for horses and riding. No, Thea is driven by a passion that she herself cannot explain, but also by a deeply suppressed family secret.
