Title: Death of the black-haired girl
Description: A brilliant but careless professor at the college, Steven Brookman has reluctantly decided that for the sake of his marriage and his soul, he must extricate himself from his relationship with Maud Stack, his dazzling student, whose papers are always late and too long, but always brilliant. Maud, however, is a young woman whose passions, personal, intellectual, and social, are not easily contained or curtailed, and their union and their rift will yield tragic and long-reaching consequences.
