About this listen

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING MASTERPIECE OF THE ROMANTIC SUSPENSE GENRE

'The effect is powerful: here is naked obsession, sulfurous, total, scarcely possible to live with' FINANCIAL TIMES

'The reader looks on with mingled shock and fascination. A tour de force' NEW YORK TIMES

'A taut, sinister tale of erotic obsession' VANITY FAIR

'Damaged people are dangerous. They know they can survive.'

Damage, Josephine Hart's debut novel, an international bestseller, filmed with Jeremy Irons and Juliette Binoche, now takes its proper place as a Virago Modern Classic. It is the gripping story of a man's desperate obsession and scandalous love affair. He is a man who appears to have everything: wealth, a beautiful wife and children, and a prestigious political career in Parliament. But his life lacks passion, and his aching emptiness drives him to an all-consuming and ultimately catastrophic relationship with his son's fiancée.

'A remarkable first novel of awesome accomplishment and quite startling psychological insight' RUTH RENDELL
