Where the story lives
Core themes explored include identity formation, tradition vs. change, class, social conscience, faith, and self-expression
Buckle up for some references to the 70s, like a church bake sale, brown paper bag book covers, and other details that take you back
The Setting
❊ Barnard College and the Wharton School
❊ College campuses in New York and Philadelphia shaped by draft anxiety from the Vietnam War and a new vocabulary for women’s lives
The Characters
❀ Julie Brown and Lawrence Hart were raised together in the Boston suburbs and inseparable
❀ Other key voices include Lawrence's father, friends, and the people Julie meet in New York
The Correspondence
✿ Julie writes from art studios - her voice loosens as she steps into a new world
✿ Lawrence writes from an Ivy League campus, his replies careful and shaped by tradition and a pre-determined path
