Synopsis: AI Overview: "Not Quite A Dream" is a debut novel by Kathleen Hughes that explores the complexities of an inter-faith relationship.

The story centers on:
•A Forbidden Romance: A love affair between a Gentile woman and a Jewish man in the Midwest.
•Conflicting Backgrounds: The couple must navigate significant differences in religion and age, as the suitor is fifteen years older than the girl.
•Family Opposition: The narrative follows their struggle to maintain their relationship in the face of "savage family opposition".
•Resolution: Ultimately, the two prove that their love can survive these societal and personal obstacles, culminating in their marriage.

Overall Condition: Acceptable: The book has some wear to the cover with a small break in the backstrip at the spine head, but its integrity is intact. The front hinge is starting to crack. There is no writing in the margins or underlining and highlighting of text, and there are no missing pages or anything that would compromise the legibility or understanding of the text. See images.
