It is a love story, but it is also about a journey to self-acceptance. By the end of it, both major characters have to challenge assumptions and prejudices in society and in themselves. Actress Shara travels and lives with Jessa while researching her new role - that of Jessa Hanson - in the film about the conductor's life, and they fall in love. Shara's boyfriend Derek intervenes, helped by Shara's belief that she has caught Jessa in a compromising position with a former lover. They separate. \"Maestra\" is filmed and Jessa records a musical poem that is a tribute to the love she has lost. When Shara hears that musical piece, goes to see her. They consummate their relationship, but is Shara ready for the kind of publicity a lesbian relationship will attract?\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alison Barnard","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":52422162317595,"sku":"9783941598102","price":25.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0723\/8392\/2459\/files\/VEQxU05KTEd5cVd1OUVOd2kxOGdNUT09.jpg?v=1782821001","url":"https:\/\/sapphicsociety.com\/en-ca\/products\/a-walk-in-the-rain-9783941598102","provider":"Sapphic Society","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
