 | Souvenir of Cold Springs by Kitty Burns Florey
The novel begins in 1987--with Margaret Neal, a student at Harvard who drops out of school after being seduced by one of her professors and having an abortion--and works its way backwards in time, through the history of an upstate New York family, ending in 1938 with Margaret's aunt, Peggy Kerwin, as a young and troubled woman in San Francisco. An epilogue set in 1988 brings the story up to date. The title, SOUVENIR OF COLD SPRINGS, refers to an inscription on a cheap ring bought as a gift in 1938 (the ring is a constant motif in the novel), but it is also meant to encompass the continuing effects--souvenirs--of one impulsive act.
