A növel with a contemporary setting reflecting today's social upheavals and shifting morality, it is, in the author's words, "a love story that concentrates upon the tension between two American 'pathways': the way of tradition, ox Law; and the way of spontaneous emotion - in this case, Love.

s ¦I DO WITH ME WHAT YOU WILL brings to life in Elena Howe the year's most transfixing heroine. A növel with a contemporary setting reflecting today's social upheavals and shifting morality, it is, in the author's words, "a love story that concentrates upon the tension between two American 'pathways': the way of tradition, ox Law; and the way of spontaneous emotion - in this case, Love. In the synthesis of these tv/o apparently contradictory forces lies the inevi transformation of our culture. "Romantic love is one of our Western reli >iors and must be respected as such; it must be acknowledged as the violent, unstoppable, rathtr beautiful force it is. But the West is alsó a cuiture of Law: American society will never be transf by stray acts of violence in the streets - it will be transformed only through the courts. And they, in turn, will not be transformed until the men who run them are changed, individual by individual. Ours is still a time of romantic love; the time of a more communal, transcendental love is not yet come. DO WITH ME WHAT YOU WILL suggests such a transformation. "If what is available to an individual is romantic love, then it must be - it will be - this kind of love that liberates." In the "freeing" from the enchantment of her "self," Elena Howe lives a drama in which, by a continual process, she is raised to a higher aspect of her own being through involvement with a man - a drama of marriage and adultery that constructs an hour-by-hour, thought-by-thought experience both shattering and redemptive.
