Description
A schoolgirl catches the eye of the future leader of Nazi Germany. An aspiring playwright writes to a convicted serial killer, seeking inspiration. A pair of childhood sweethearts reunite to commit rape and murder. A devoted Mormon wife follows her husband into the wilderness after he declares himself a prophet. The 12 stories in The Love of a Bad Man imagine the lives of real women, all of whom were the lovers, wives or mistresses of various ‘bad’ men in history. Beautifully observed, fascinating and at times horrifying, the stories interrogate power, the nature of obsession and the lengths some women will go to for the men they love.
