Ecstatic at her acceptance into a teaching order in the Midwest, she began the period of intense training called 'formation,' learning the virtues prescribed by a 19th-century, male-dominated Church: humility, self-abnegation, and childlike dependence on the will of her superiors. What happens to a normal 14-year-old girl, giggly and interested in boys, who adores her family yet feels compelled to commit herself to a life that will demand that she never visit her parents' home and never look at herself naked in the mirror, even alone in her room? And what leads Mary, 'formed' and 'on mission' to teach in one of the many schools of her order, to make the crucial decision not to take the final vows?
