Emotions Running Riot

For Kelly, a busy Athenian artist and teacher, maturity means emotional ties, being 'there' for her children, meeting schedules and accepting responsibilities. Then, during a scorching Greek summer, a volcano erupts in her life and threatens everything, driving her into the arms of a stranger, revealing new heights of love, understanding and tenderness, and making her emotions run riot. True eroticism, she finds, is not the preserve of the young. But Kelly and the tall sophisticated Englishman, Gee, both know they each have a past. . . is their love strong enough to overcome it? Few couples have the sort of bittersweet affair experienced by Kelly and Gee, and few novels tell it as movingly as Emotions Running Riot. From the Publisher: Emotions Running Riot works particular wellin its convincingly developed structure, and creates effective portraits of the central characters, they have enough personality to carry the novel. Both inner thought and dialogue are particularly well used to carry the story line. It really is a well thought out, extended narrative and takes and shakes the reader into going along with the author; it achieves that essential of all novels, all storytelling; the willing suspension of the listener's, the reader's disbelief. E. R. R. deals with the ever present question of who and where we are and, in particular, with how we relate to those around us, to our intimates, and it is this intimacy of thought and shared experience that the novel explores well and movingly. The scope of the novel is ambitious, but it comes off; this is a landscape that is fully habited. It is romantic in the best sense of the word; it is, within a deceptively simple framework, a complex novel.
