In February 1993 a fifty-two year old Californian lawyer, returning to his New Hampshire boarding school for a memorial service, finds himself in a February of 1958, his senior year. The school, faculty, and students remain as they were, but he, in regaining his youth, retains his lifelong knowledge and memories. For three days he tries to return to his appreciated life and marriage.
