SynopsisIn an Italian family, few things are a greater handicap than being born female, but Gina's dad generously decided to overlook this shortcoming and raise Gina as a boy -- the son he always wanted. As lawyer to numerous alleged mobsters, Dad had some colorful clients who would regularly gather around the basement pool table to talk business, drink, and be hustled by junior-high Gina. There was no way she was going to turn into one of the big-hair girls of Italian-Americans. But her journey would have all the bumps that come with that cherished immigrant ambition of moving from steerage to the suburbs in three generations.
