In the fall of 1991, Grayson is 40 years old. He's published some
well-reviewed books of short stories and has worked as a college
English teacher for 16 years, but he also has recently gone
bankrupt and feels that his career as a fiction writer is over. So
he enters law school at the University of Florida, moving alone to
Gainesville, a town he'd never been in before and where he knows no
one. FIRST FALL IN GAINESVILLE is Grayson's diary from his first
semester of law school. Like Scott Turow's memoir ONE L or John J.
Osborne Jr.'s novel THE PAPER CHASE, it gives the reader a sense of
the process fledgling law students go through as they learn to
"think like like a lawyer" -- except that it's from the day-by-day
perspective of a 40-year-old who knows that he will never practice
law and who is cynical about the process from the start.
