From time to time I read true crime, and the best I have found is Simon Worrall’s brilliant The Poet and the Murderer. The book’s greatest mark is its fine writing; but it is also massive in breadth and scale. It is about forgery, and bomb making, and the Mormon church, and the poet Emily Dickinson, and the sociological impact of religion, and sociopathic behavior, and on and on. A very entertaining and thought-provoking read that I immensely enjoyed from start to finish.
