| Summary, etc. | A shy and ambitious headmaster, Mike Bordwin, tries to uphold the reputation of Avery Academy. One evening, a tape surfaces showing four students—three boys (including scholarship‐student Silas) and a girl named Sienna—engaged in sexual activity. The tape is small, but its impact is enormous. <br/><br/>The school administration attempts to contain the scandal quietly. Mike feels pressured to protect the school’s image, his job, relationships with faculty, and his own moral standing. <br/><br/>Each of the main characters (students, parents, staff, townspeople) is given a voice—Shreve shifts perspectives between them, revealing how this incident affects their lives, reputations, relationships, and sense of self.<br/><br/>Testimony is a thoughtful and compelling novel that shows how one reckless, recorded night at a privileged private school can unravel lives and expose secrets. Anita Shreve uses this incident as a lens to explore guilt, innocence, power, and the price of silence. |
