Embracing all the privileges that come with attending a prestigious school, she becomes acutely aware of the impending responsibilities of adulthood. As Susan matures, she finds herself troubled by doubts about Thom’s intellect, causing her to gradually drift away from him.

“That glimpse of this woman in the flesh started swallowing everything, just as it had in 1981. She was a reminder that it had all been real, that the dream had actually happened, that even though four decades had passed since we last saw each other, we were still bound by the events of that fall.”
