520    At twenty-one, Evelyn is naive about life and love. Raised
       in a small Montana town, she moves at age sixteen with her
       devout Catholic family to California. There, she is drawn 
       to Latino culture when she works among the migrant 
       workers. During the summer of her junior year in college, 
       Evelyn travels to a small Mexican town to help set up a 
       school and a library-an experience that whets her appetite
       for a life full of both purpose and adventure. After 
       graduation, Evelyn joins the Peace Corps and is sent to 
       perform community development work in a small mountain 
       town in the Andes of Peru. There, she and her roommate, 
       Marie, search for meaningful projects and adjust to living
       with few amenities. Over the course of eighteen months, 
       the two young women work in a hospital, start 4-H clubs, 
       attend campesino meetings, and teach PE in a school with 
       dirt floors. Evelyn is chosen queen of the local boys' 
       high school and-despite her resolve to resist such 
       temptations-falls in love with a university student. As 
       she comes of age, Evelyn learns about life and love the 
       hard way when she must choose between following the 
       religious rules of her youth and giving in to her sexual 
       desires
