It is a truth universally acknowledged that every single, good Calabrian boy is looking for a single, good Calabrian girl to marry so they can cook, wash and clean for him! It's the late eighties and twenty-three-year-old Ree is trying to get out of yet another annoying marriage arrangement forced on her by her strict Calabrian family who live by every unwritten rule they brought to Australia from their hometown in Calabria back in the fifties. Ree has spent her whole life following these stupid rules and has nothing to show for it but her 'good Calabrian girl' reputation and dishpan hands. Naïve, insecure and sheltered from the real world, Ree dreams of escaping her way of life. She longs to spread her wings and fly, and maybe ... just maybe find true love along the way.

Autorenporträt
L M Ferreri is a second generation Italian whose large close knit family migrated from Calabria, Italy to Sydney, Australia back in the forties and fifties. She is a wife and mother of four and grandmother of one. She has been an SRE catechist for the Catholic Archdiocese of Sydney for the past seventeen years and loves Jesus with all her heart, mind and soul. It has taken L M Ferreri thirty years to publish her first novel and believes that when the Killers wrote the lyric 'and the sky is full of dreams, but you don't know how to fly' they were inadvertently thinking of her. 'If Murphy could Fly' is her first novel in a trilogy.
