SUNTOUCHED

I'm still reading Theresa Nicholas' "Suntouched":

"It is the vibrant 1960s, and a young woman, desperate to escape the suffocation of her middle-class English life, flees back to Greece and the arms of her older, married lover, Tasso. But their scandalous relationship becomes increasingly explosive, overshadowed by Tasso's volatile nature and the military coup that stuns Greece - culminating in a tragedy of almost Greek proportions - With its insightful yet often comic exploration of obsessive love, Suntouched is a compulsive tale that powerfully evokes a fiercely male-dominated society that lives by its own rules".
