All or Nun: Memoir of a Black Catholic Growing Up

Hyacinth wants nothing more than to become a nun but life keeps interfering with her dream. First, puberty strikes and brings with it a set of big, brown B-cups. Second, a cute boy moves to the neighborhood and stirs her hormone pot. And third, her father dies. What is a good Catholic girl to do under these circumstances? All or Nun: Memoir of a Black Catholic Growing Up is a frank and funny account of what it was like for the author to grow up Catholic in the 1970’s and 1980’s while attending parochial schools in Mississippi.
