description: In this last of the 14 classic lesbian novels by Sarah Aldridge, a staid, traditional college is pulled into the maelstrom of contemporary social issues when Professor Joan Etheridge is drawn into the nebulous world of the elusive Alice. Joan's empathy for the seemingly lost and troubled Alice, surprising even to herself, leads her on an unexpected and life-changing journey. Contemporary voices for change assail Joan's ivory tower, forcing her to examine her own ideals and helping her unravel her colleagues' true motives and ethics. She must navigate the gulf between academic discussions of love, loyalty and personal values and real-world events demanding she take a stand on civil rights, reproductive freedom and most of all, consider where her own heart belongs.
