Soft cover. Etat : Very Good. 1st Edition. Very good condition. Minor wear to book edges. Pages are sunned. Winner of the 2002 NSW Premier's Literary Award. When Dr William Macbeth poisoned two of his sons in 1927, his wife and sister hid the murders in the intensely private realm of family secrets. Macbeth behaved as if he were immune to consequences and avoided detection and punishment. Or did he?Secrets can be as corrosive as poison, and as time passed, the story haunted and divided his descendants. His granddaughter, Gail Bell, spent ten years reading the literature on poisoning in order to understand Macbeth's life. Herself a chemist, she listened for echoes in the great cases of the nineteenth century, in myths, fiction, and poison lore.Intricate, elegant, and beautifully realised,The Poison Principleis a masterful book about family secrets and literary poisonings. And it finally answers the question of what really happened to those two small boys in the winter of 1927. (back cover). N° de réf. du vendeur 002754
