Description

From the author of the award-nominated The Passion of Alice comes a brave, wise, dramatic novel set during the controversial integration of the Boston public schools in 1974.

In 1974, when Ann Ahern begins her junior year of high school, South Boston is in crisisCatholic mothers are blockading buses to keep Black children from the public schools, and teenagers are raising havoc in the streets. Ann, an outsider in her own Irish-American community, is infatuated with her beautiful French teacher, Mademoiselle Eugnie, who hails from Paris but is of African descent. Spurred by her adoration for Eugnie, Ann embarks on a journey that leads her beyond South Boston, through the fringes of the Black Power movement, toward love, and ultimately to the truth about herself.

In this ambitious and arresting novel, Stephanie Grant's searing prose, powerful storytelling, and richly drawn characters bring tumultuous moment in American history into perfect focus.
