My nonfiction picks have been real doozies lately! I do appreciate the new details this book contributes to Diehl’s biography — I didn’t know, for example, that her late husband was black or that, pre-abortion access in PA, she founded and operated a questionable nonprofit women’s clinic that shuttled women to Buffalo, NY for abortions. Otherwise the co-authors overwhelm themselves (and readers) by writing about Diehl alongside the history of psychiatry — two topics that feel less symbiotic than forced together. Lots of marveling over the pathology of the female serial killer and whether or not she exists.
