Resumen

Good Girls Don't Wear Trousers is an autobiographical novel by Lara Cardella. It was published by Mondadori in 1989, when the author was only age 19.
The novel, which tells the plight of a teenager forced into the mental and cultural restrictions of Sicily in the 1980s, achieved unexpected success. It became a social phenomenon and was translated in several languages.
In 1990, the book was adapted into a film with the same name directed by Maurizio Ponzi. In 1995, Cardella wrote a sequel to the book, entitled Volevo i pantaloni 2.
On the twentieth anniversary of the first publication in 2009, Mondadori published a new edition of the book which included a previously unpublished interview with the author.
