Remember This: A Story of Love and Hope by author Susan J. Eck, is the latest release from NFB Publishing of Buffalo.
Eck is a native Western New Yorker. After a career in teaching, she was an administrator at the University at Buffalo. Her third career has been as a student of local history. With Remember This, she has written the novel she always wanted to read.
Love was the last thing on Lily Kepler’s mind when she entered Vassar College in the fall of 1903. The thrill of living among other brainy women was soon disrupted by her reaction to the beautiful junior, Helen McIntyre, who became Lily’s Greek tutor. Before she had words to describe her emotions, Lily was in love.
Disaster strikes when Lily’s parents decide that she will not return to Vassar the next year. When Lily proposes that they make plans to reunite after Helen’s graduation, Helen loses faith and drives Lily away.
At home in Buffalo, Lily must meet the challenge of fashioning her own future. She is determined to become independent of her family, and longs to be reconciled with Helen.
This is a paean to first love and the courage it takes to follow your heart, no matter where it may lead.
