Early autumn, 1964; and for Allan Ross, his final year at quietly prestigious Williams College seems pretty sure to stay predictable and dulluntil he meets Ann Ash, the fascinating daughter of a powerful, and widely feared, professor.
Suddenly, all bets are off, and Allan quickly learns that life holds infinitely more than good grades, campus savoir faire, and the joys of jamming to progressive jazz.
As winter grips the Purple Valley, Allans neatly ordered world explodes in a storm of passion, doubt, and self-discovery. Love, real love, leads to marriage, right? So why delay? Why hide? What is there to be frightened of?
The return of spring provides unlooked-forand not always welcomeanswers that leave Allan doubting every certainty his life seemed built on. Stumbling through this underworld, he finds, as others did before him, that the dead have much to teach us; that what has been once may be again; and that unlooked-for obstacles can also offer opportunities.
Summer brings an end to everything, and what comes after must remain a mysterybut one that holds a chance for perfect satisfaction!

Yet another college novel??
Yes! Because some stories never dieand what appears to be the past may reveal the future.
For example, check the Prologue. Are these really the 1960s you remember, or were told about? Whats going on?
The Williams College in these pages is as much a waking dream as it is an evocation. Rather than trying to bring history to life, this novel, Satisfaction, seeks instead to spin a web of possibilitiesthe same that re-emerge in every generation, and have done since troubled love began!
