Summary
The Last of Her Kind
The Last of Her Kind introduces two women who meet as freshmen on the Barnard campus in 1968. Georgette George does not know what to make of her brilliant, idealistic roommate, Ann Drayton, and her obsessive disdain for the ruling class into which she was born. She is mortified by Ann's romanticization of the underprivileged class, which Georgette herself is hoping college will enable her to escape. Then, in 1976, Ann is convicted of murder. "...this engrossing, beautiful novel will enthrall readers." - starred, Booklist
