Oftentimes, strange and unconventional desires lurk beneath the veneer of normalcy many individuals project. Given the right set of circumstances, these desires cease to be repressed — and are eventually acted out.
Certain individuals attempt to retaliate against the increasing necessity to comply with society’s demands by embracing unorthodox modes of behavior. Subcultures exist in our society, catering to a wide range of tastes. If these cultural avenues of expression did not exist, the pressure to conform would become too much for some people to bear — and the consequences would be devastating.
Aurora Instrom, the heroine of TEACHER IN TRAINING, is an unwilling victim of a suburban subculture. Caught in a covert world she never dreamed existed, Aurora struggles to free herself, until she comes to understand the ultimate value of her new experience.
The alarm rang and Aurora Instrom reached out, to shut it off. She lay there in the semidarkness feeling very unhappy.
Wearily she got up and showered, wondering if things at this school would be as bad as she thought they would.
She had thought she wanted to be a teacher, but she’d done very badly at college and didn’t know why. As a result her grades weren’t that good and this school was the only one that had even interviewed her.
She had been frightened at the interview. The headmaster, Brett Harmon, and his wife Karla had been friendly enough, but there was a sternness to them, a strange feeling of menace that put Aurora off.
