About the Book
Bill Evans’ gentle ballad reminds Greta and Sunday of all they shared and all they couldn’t share when they first met in 1964 and fell in love. Sunday Morgan was the first Negro in Greta’s otherwise white high school in Milwaukee. Both serious students from troubled families, they had everything in common but their color. Everything fell apart when Sunday returned from Mississippi after Freedom Summer.
Thirty-two years later, Sunday and Greta meet again after a life-threatening incident forces Sunday to confront the meaning of courage. At fifty, Sunday is a distinguished professor of African American history in California. Long married and the father of three children, he finds his marriage threatened by his compulsive philandering. Greta, a psychotherapist and single mother of a teen-aged son, has never formed a lasting connection with a man.
Their second meeting marks the time in each of their lives that they begin to live their lives forward, rather than remain haunted by past fears.
