Everything you need to understand or teach Swept Away by Dafydd ab Hugh.
Swept Away is a complex psychological drama played out in the format of high adventure. Some readers may feel that too much introspection intrudes, impeding the drive of the narrative, but many others will relish the author's attempt to convey all of the thoughts going through the mind of the narrator, Jeanette Taylor. Jeanette and four companions become trapped and separated in the middle of a flood, resulting in a perilous struggle to survive. Jeanette's quick thinking is bound to appeal to many readers as she figures out ways to escape not only the rampaging forces of nature but a sociopath whose delusions threaten her with rape and death. How she copes is the heart of the adventure.
