Summary

One L tells author Scott Turow's experience as a first-year Harvard Law School student. The book takes place in the heart of Boston, where Harvard University is located. First years, or One-L's as they are often called, all face similar issues their initial year of law school. Harvard, known for its reputation as one of the best law schools in the country, takes only about 12% of applicants.

Turow recounts his time there, the professors and classes that helped mold him into the lawyer and writer that he became. Each professor has their own very distinct teaching style and demeanor that Turow thoroughly outlines. Professor William Zechman with his disorienting hypotheticals, Nicky Morris, the young and progressive civil procedure professor who is well liked among students, and Rudolph Perini, a notorious, brilliant bully in the court and classroom.

All of the characters, including the professors, were real people. While he changed the names of all the characters, people have been able to figure out who Turow was referring to.
