Frankie, the daughter of Charly Biscoe-heroine of You'll See! and Not That I. . .-is graduating from high school and [maybe] heading to college. Her strongest field is physics but her mother advises chemistry and her father suggests the Marine Corps. The US is at war, and Frankie's cousin-thwarted at love and greatly depressed-is entering the Army. Her friends all seem to have their futures planned, while she's in a quandary. Even to attend the Prom she must choose between Caleb the chess-playing wimp and Conan the Klutz whose idea of romance involves the back seat of a car and stealing her undies. Frankie is no nymphet-she's eighteen going on twenty-nine, sharp-witted and sharp-looking. Still, her sheltered existence is about to end. What's a bright but confused young woman to do-ask her parents for advice? Eeww!.--Provided by publisher
