It was also supposed to be open, because he was a man.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMr Harper is one of those teachers who hasn't much time for rules; besides, he has other things on his mind. Overwhelming grief for the death of his wife is tainted by guilt and jealousy, and this easy-going, clever guy is, as the kids say, losing it.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEnter Wendy Mundy, funny name, funny looks, a feisty seventeen year old who knows about loss.

When the school Classics trip visits a volcanic region, truths will rise to the surface.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eA Backward Glance\u003c\/em\u003e is inspired by the myth of Orpheus.
