"In his struggle to rise above his poor white trash origins, Jed Tewksbury moves from the rural South of the early 1920's to the University of Chicago, to Europe and back to a teaching post in Nashville, where he rediscovers the girl he had left behind him in Alabama many years before."
"After achieving world renown as a classical and medieval literary scholar, marrying twice, fathering a son, and having an ill-fated love affair, uprooted and alienated Jed Tewksbury returns to his Alabama hometown to visit his mother's grave and make peace with himself."
