Beschreibung
The Salpetriere asylum, 1885. All of Paris is in thrall to Doctor Charcot and his displays of hypnotism on women who have been deemed mad or hysterical, outcasts from society. But the truth is much more complicated - for these women are often simply inconvenient, unwanted wives or strong-willed daughters. Already a bestseller in France and soon to be released as an Amazon Prime film starring Melanie Laurent. A darkly sumptuous tale of wicked spectacle, wild injustice and the insuppressible strength of women.
