Started: The Lovers by John Connolly
I have read this book before, in fact it was the first of John Connolly's books I ever read. I am looking forward to rereading this book as I think it will allow me to slot those pieces of the puzzle into the right spots.. and thus get a clearer picture still of the enigma Charlie Parker.
While I have been studying I have been reading some back issues of magazines.. Mainly "Murder Most Foul" & "True Detective". I find it fascinating to read these accounts of the things humans will do to one another. It really does make you question the level of complexity of the human psyche, that people would act with such callous disregard for the lives of others. At what point does a fantasy become unsatisfying? At what point does self preservation make you reach the point that killing is the only option you feel is left to you? I think we will never know the answers to these questions, because in reality the answers are as varied as the indivdual members of humanity themselves.
