Riders
Jilly Cooper. Ballantine Books, $29 (644pp) ISBN 978-0-345-33332-2
The average American may not view show-jumping as a particularly glamorous sport, but this glimpse into the world of the international equestrian is likely to change any such perception. The story focuses on a group of British riders for whom competition is not limited to winning a team victory. Personal jealousies, financial reward and sexual conquests are likewise factors that drive these intense, charismatic and sexy athletes. The individual emphasis is so strong that even the horses seem to have ""personalities.'' This sophisticated novel is written not only for sports fans but for lovers of good fiction. (July)
