A Summer Place
by Wilson, Sloan
A Summer Place is the title of a 1958 novel by author Sloan Wilson, who also wrote The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit. The story examines the adult lives of two onetime teen lovers, Ken and Sylvia, who were from different social strata (he was self-supporting, working as a lifeguard at a Maine island resort, while her family stayed as guests of the owners, one summer between years at college), and went on to marry different people – entirely the wrong people, it turned out.
