Set against the political backlash of one of the most noto-rious cases in English criminal history, this is a perceptive, first-hand portrayal of the most talked-about and maligned of women. The Monstering of Myra Hindley is written by one of the closest people to her, Nina Wilde. Wilde not only sets the record straight on certain matters, she also provides new insights about one of the most infamous women in Britain. It contains until now private information, 'home-truths' and describes a journey charting a special relationship. Everyone, the author included, recognises the plight of the victims but this should not be allowed to mask other wrongs that, with hindsight, become increasingly apparent in Hindley's case.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 234mmItem Length: 156mmItem Width: 8mmItem Weight: 249gAuthor: Nina WildeContributor: Beatrix Campbell (Foreword by), Judith Jones (Foreword by)Genre: BiographyTopic: Social Sciences, Gender Sex & Relationships, Society & CultureRelease Year: 2016 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
