Download or read book Sinister Suggestions written by Karen Stephen and published by . This book was released on 2021-09-11 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the fall of 1961, student journalists on the Stanford Daily are forbidden by school authorities and their Chief Editor (who has a nefarious secret of his own to hide) from investigating a campus suicide and murder for fear of damaging the reputation of the "Harvard of the West". Unfazed by the admonition to cease and desist and spurred on by the intriguing tale of a freshman coed, Mattie, who suffers from amnesia that has caused her to forget that she is a student, Rita, Joe, and Jamison set about investigating the deaths and helping Mattie recover her memory and unravel her nightmares of childhood sexual abuse. Mattie wonders if she might have been sexually assaulted while serving as a subject in a hypnosis experiment. Rita, an advocate for gender equality, has already been investigating prior claims of harm to coeds in these studies. Joe, the product of a working-class union family, is convinced there is a connection to the Full Moon incident-a campus prank that degenerated into violent threats of rape against female students. Jamison, a pre-law student with his eye on civil rights issues, steps up to protect Mattie's rights with the university. Will the answers be found within the halls of academia or does the trail of sinister suggestions extend beyond the confines of the campus? Have the husband and wife team of psychologist and physician in charge of the hypnosis studies failed in their duty to protect students? Will the young journalists' determination to solve the deaths and Mattie's dilemma send more than one of them to their doom?In a year in which America hovered between Camelot and catastrophe, the novel's themes-the hazards of academic research, the rights of students, the equality of women, the specter of racism, the abuse of power among physicians, and the toll of childhood sexual trauma on later life-foreshadow, by nearly 60 years, many of the potent issues we face today. And the news of that day-Syria, a wall to keep peoples apart, nuclear threats, Russian treachery, and civil rights protests-seem eerily familiar.
