Book Review of Strange Fits of Passion

Strange Fits of Passion
Helpful Score: 1


I'm not sure how this ended up being the last Anita Shreve book for me to read, but it was worth the wait. This is a very painful story, but I think it is her best (I would have said Change of Altitude before this one). As horrible as the abuse was that the main character suffered, it paled in comparison to the blow she received from the media. In the world we live in we are guilty until proven innocent and if guilt makes a better story than innocence...you know the outcome.
