Randy Susan Meyers and Jenna Blum discuss Randy's new novel, When idealism collides with reality, good intentions are cold comfort as the collateral damage mounts.
Annabel’s story begins in 1964 with her journey to Freedom Summer in Mississippi, where the disappearance of her first love ignites a lifelong fight for justice. Years later, she, her husband, and four other couples form a Boston political collective where they live together with their children in a rambling Boston house.
As the era’s social upheaval intensifies, they move their children to Vermont, where they can remain safe from the world’s threats; their parents continue their political work, taking turns traveling to Vermont to care for the children.
But not all danger comes from the outside.
