      Študentka hudby Jennifer, dcéra chudobného talianskeho prisťahovalca, a poslucháč Harvardovej univerzity Oliver, syn bohatého bankára, sa do seba zaľúbia. Ich vzťah, sprvu študentsky nezáväzný, sa mení na hlbokú, čistú, nežnú lásku. Proti vôli Oliverovho otca sa vezmú a začínajú spoločný život plný lásky, no nie bez ťažkostí a bolesti... Segalov miniromán bol v čase svojho vzniku novým javom v americkej literatúre. Prekvapil najmä vďaka netradičnému, sympatizujúcemu pohľadu na mladých ľudí, ale aj pre svoj dojímavým dejom, podaný jednoducho a pritom strhujúco, s kontrapunktom humoru.
