A Very English Scandal 2024 pdf epub mobi 电子书 图书描述

A thrilling true crime account of the scandalous private life of Jeremy Thorpe, the British MP whose covert homosexual affair led to blackmail, cover ups, a hired hitman, and ended with the “Trial of the Century."

As a Member of Parliament and Leader of the Liberal Party in the 1960s and 70s, Jeremy Thorpe's bad behavior snuck under the radar for years. Police and politicians alike colluded to protect one of their own. In 1970, Thorpe was the most popular and charismatic politician in the country, poised to hold the balance of power in a coalition government.

But Jeremy Thorpe was a man with a secret. His homosexual affairs and harassment of past partners, along with his propensity for lying and embezzlement, only escalated as he evaded punishment. Until a dark night on the moor with an ex-lover, a dog, and a hired gun led to consequences that even his charm and power couldn't help him escape.

Dubbed the "Trial of the Century," Thorpe's climactic case at the Old Bailey in London was the first time that a leading British politician had stood trial on a murder charge, and the first time that a murder plot had been hatched in the House of Commons. And it was the first time that a prominent public figure had been exposed as a philandering gay man, in an era when homosexuality had only just become legal.

With the pace and drama of a thriller, A VERY ENGLISH SCANDAL is an extraordinary story of hypocrisy, deceit, and betrayal at the heart of the British Establishment.

对当时发生的真实事件并不了解,所以完全当作小说来看的。不长,但感觉每翻一页都有新的twist,政客,骗子,同性恋,谋杀,勒索,理想主义者,乱搞人际关系,失败的投机者,出轨,自杀倾向,逃亡,背叛,世纪审判...十分刺激,非常好看,非常English。

我简直怀疑自己看的电子书是缩写版,像剧本提纲一样阐述事件,返回开头看到正版企鹅图标,这就是原著,那这个原著要么编到纪实类,小说真是谈不上。
