It's the early '70s and no one discusses or even suspects domestic abuse. But after Maureen suffers another brutal beating, she flees with her infant daughter to a coastal town in Maine. The weeks pass slowly, and just as Maureen settles into her new life and new identity, Harrold reappears, bringing the story to a violent, unforgettable climax. A labyrinth of a tale with an ingenious structure, Strange Fits of Passion is also a powerful portrait of truth and deception.<br></div> 1221243 1991 Strange Fits of Passion total:1372|5:244|4:501|3:501|2:106|1:20| 1372 4959 1811 106 14959 0156031396 9780156031394 1322 97 3.61 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1166668974m/14959.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/14959.Strange_Fits_of_Passion 2 1 false Wed Aug 01 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Tue Sep 25 08:44:20 -0700 2007 Tue Sep 25 08:58:24 -0700 2007 more...]]> 14959 0156031396 9780156031394 1322 97 3.61 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1166668974m/14959.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/14959.Strange_Fits_of_Passion 3 1 false Wed Jun 24 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Mon Jun 22 08:25:24 -0700 2009 Wed Jun 24 23:41:53 -0700 2009 1 more...]]> 14959 0156031396 9780156031394 1322 97 3.61 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1166668974m/14959.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/14959.Strange_Fits_of_Passion 2 0 true Sun Feb 01 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Thu Feb 05 13:35:47 -0800 2009 Thu Feb 05 13:35:47 -0800 2009 more...]]> 2508266 1585470457 9781585470457 1 1 3.61 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2508266.Strange_Fits_of_Passion 3 1 false Sat Jan 05 05:36:49 -0800 2008 Tue Jan 08 19:52:32 -0800 2008 The ending ran like a term paper that had to be exactly so many words, and with the ends of the story snipped off and stuffed back into the seam, it barely made it, limping to the finish.
