Title: The education of Nancy Adams
Description: "Living in her dead parents' house in 1996, Nancy Adams is about to go to work at the Florida high school from which she graduated twenty years earlier. Her new boss was her teacher back in 1976, a man she adored. She was seventeen then. He was twenty-seven. He is married now, she is a childless widow. Her own education is about to begin again as she enters an adolescent world of hormones, rumors, and teenage drama; where students are sometimes more mature than their teachers, and where she finally learns the truth about the man she thought she loved. In that discovery process, she must also confront the intellectual ghost of Henry Adams, the dead historian she was forced to read in college, a confrontation which ends with her being his teacher"--Jacket.
