商品簡介
“The Love of a Bad Man is a rare combination of immense writing talent and wondrous imagination. You’ve never read a book quite like this one.”—Jeff Guinn, author of Manson
“Like Helen Garner, Laura Woollett is impelled to explore the darkest corners of the human heart, the savage cognitive distortions of love; to understand and empathize with the monstrous, rather than to instinctively recoil or judge . . . Woollett’s pitch-perfect command of narrative voice, period, and psychology creates 12 tales to fascinate and unnerve.”—The Age
A schoolgirl catches the eye of the future leader of Nazi Germany. An aspiring playwright writes to a convicted serial killer, seeking inspiration. A Mormon wife follows her husband into the wilderness. The Love of a Bad Man imagines the lives of these and other real women—Blanche, the sister-in-law to Bonnie and Clyde, Charles Manson’s California girls, and Marceline Jones (wife of Jim)—who were the lovers, mistresses, or wives of various “bad” men in history. Beautifully observed, fascinating, and at times horrifying, the stories interrogate power and the nature of obsession. A mesmerizing exploration of the lengths some women will go to for the men they love.
Laura Elizabeth Woollett is a Melbourne-based author and editor.
